Can I use Simulation Pacing with Simulink Compiler?

2 views (last 30 days)
I would like to deploy my model with Simulink Compiler and use the Simulation Pacing feature to slow down the simulation pace to approximately equivalent to wall clock time, or one simulation second per wall clock second.

For R2022b and later:

As of R2022b, Simulation pacing is supported in Rapid Accelerator and Simulink Compiler. This setting can be used to run a model in Simulation pacing at a "soft real-time" pace. 

For R2022a and earlier:

If you are using R2022a or earlier, Simulation Pacing is not supported in Rapid Accelerator or Simulink Compiler. You can achieve a similar effect by adding a "pause()" to the postStepFcn of the compiled app to slow the simulation. Attached is an example that shows the basics of this method and controls the pause time using a slider. The "Sim Pacing" display in the app displays the total wall clock time divided by the total simulation time.
This is a simple control scheme that requires manual tuning but you can adapt the example to have the app attempt to tune the pause time automatically to reach a desired simulation rate.
