Using the Simulation Model Converter (Control Design and Simulation Module)

You can use the Simulation Model Converter to convert a .mdl file, developed in The MathWorks, Inc. Simulink® simulation environment, into a LabVIEW VI that consists of a simulation diagram containing LabVIEW functions, wires, and simulation subsystems corresponding to the contents of the .mdl file. As part of the conversion process, the Simulation Model Converter uses the MathWorks, Inc. MATLAB® application software and the Simulink application software to compile the .mdl file and execute any .m files that you specify in the dialog box. If the MATLAB software or the Simulink software is not installed on the same computer as the LabVIEW Control Design and Simulation Module, the results of the conversion might be less accurate.

Note  The Simulation Model Converter cannot convert diagrams developed with The MathWorks, Inc. Stateflow® application software or other Simulink blocksets.
