Abstract

This article presents implementation and utilization details of the currently developed interface from Scade Suite to Modelica. By a few clicks one can generate a Modelica block from Scade Suite models that can be directly used and simulated in Modelica. This block calls an external function periodically; where the Ccode generated by Scade Suite is invoked.

The main purpose of the interface is to test the generated C-code within a simulated environment which is also known as Software in the Loop (SIL).
