Analog Input Card parametrization
Description of the set of parameters for the Analog Input Card in the HIL Connect Interface component.
Parameters
Once you select a card, a series of parameters appear that allow you to describe the pins in your setup and how they are connected.
Table 1 lists possible parameters for connector X1. The same parameter options are available for connector X2.The first letter of the property "Name" differs depending on the Slot where the card is located. It can be derived by replacing s with: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H.
Some of the Analog Input Cards have a Card option parameter that depends on the chosen Configuration Slot code. This property will appear at the bottom of the property window. It automatically adjusts the gain of the Analog Input components under the mask of this component in order to ensure that the value that is available from the HIL Connect Interface component is equal to the actual value of the signal connected to the HIL Connect device.
| Parameter | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| X1 | sX01 | Check if the X1 connector is used on Slot s on the HIL Connect |
| X1-1 | sX01_1 | Select if pin 1 of the X1 connector on Slot s is connected or not. |
| X1-2 | sX01_2 | Select if pin 2 of the X1 connector on Slot s is connected or not. |
| X1-3 | sX01_3 | Select if pin 3 of the X1 connector on Slot s is connected or not. |
| X1-4 | sX01_4 | Select if pin 4 of the X1 connector on Slot s is connected or not. |
| X1-5 | sX01_5 | Select if pin 5 of the X1 connector on Slot s is connected or not. |
| X1-6 | sX01_6 | Select if pin 6 of the X1 connector on Slot s is connected or not. |
| X1-7 | sX01_7 | Select if pin 7 of the X1 connector on Slot s is connected or not. |
| X1-8 | sX01_8 | Select if pin 8 of the X1 connector on Slot s is connected or not. |
| Card option | soption | Card option, which defines some specific characteristics of the card. Information about the option is represented by a number following the card configuration letters in the configuration code. This property will be available only if the selected card with specific configuration code has an option. |
Ports
Signals from the analog inputs of the HIL Connect can be accessed through the following output ports of the HIL Connect Interface component (again, the first letter depends on the Slot where this card is located):
- sX1
- sX2
As internal probes already exist, these ports can be used for sourcing signals inside of the model. The output of this port is a vector with the length of 8 elements, where each element of that vector corresponds to one pin of connector.
