Creating Standalone Application

The process of compiling a Simulink model to run as a standalone application on a flash drive is described in detail in this Simulink documentation page. The procedure is summarized below, but the most complete information is found in the documentation.

Steps

• Follow the procedure in Setting Up Development PC
• Create a bootable flash drive with FreeDOS using the Rufus tool (use the following settings)
  • MBR partition scheme for BIOS or UEFI
  • FAT32 file system
  • 8192 bytes cluster size
  • Create bootable disk using FreeDOS
• Select Stand Alone mode for the boot configuration in the Simulink Real-Time Explorer for the CassieV3 target (make sure to save the change)
• Build the model that will be loaded onto Cassie (for example, model.slx)
• After the build completes, copy all files in the model_slrt_emb folder (listed below) to the flash drive (this folder can be found in the directory where the generated code is saved)
  • autoexec.bat
  • xpcboot.com
  • model.rtb
• Set the target computer's BIOS settings to boot first from the flash drive
• Plug the flash drive into the target computer and power on
