The HiL Starter Kit helps you to get jump-started with your Hardware-in-the-Loop simulation. It contains the hard- and software to give you a quick and comprehensive introduction into setup, parameterization and operation of a HiL system with a PC/104-based real-time controller.

Enabling technologies such as The MathWorks' Simulink® and xPC Target suite offer a fully integrated end-to-end design environment. xPC Target provides a high-performance, host-target prototyping environment that connects Simulink® and Stateflow® models to physical systems and executes them in real time on PC compatible hardware.

The "starter kit" has all the customized hard- and software to get you jump-started. It contains an embedded PC/104 -based control box outfitted with a set of analog/digital I/Os, a CAN card and CAN bus couplers. A simple Simulink® demonstration model is included, complete with CANopen I/O interfaces.
