dSPACE Real-Time Systems (SCALEXIO Platforms)

This 2-day training course introduces you to the basic workflow for SCALEXIO simulation systems, where you will be using dSPACE ConfigurationDesk and model ports.

This course covers only SCALEXIO platforms. For rapid control prototyping using the dSPACE Real-Time Interface (RTI) Library, see the corresponding training course for PHS-based platforms. Differences will be explained.
