ADvantageDE development
environment provides
a powerful tool for
configuring hardware
in the real-time simulator.
Managing simulator
hardware configuration
becomes an increasingly
challenging activity
as the real-time simulator
lab grows to becoming
a large distributed
simulation facility.
ADvantage embraces
the concept of logical
device drivers to
layer application-specific
functionality on
top of generic devices.
For example the
IP3DAC device shown
in the illustration
above may be used
to emulate numerous
vehicle sensors
including LVDTs,
resolvers, thermocouples,
and more. Each IP3DAC
board found in a
simulator may be
assigned different
functionality by
binding a logical
device template
to a physical device.
The simulator device
configuration provides
an important layer
of functionality
between the real
subsystems found
in the system integration
lab (SIL) and the
simulation models.
ADvantageDE provides
an easy-to-use tool
for defining this
hardware configuration.
Flexible simulator
device configuration
becomes very important
in large SILs where
multiple suppliers
deliver simulation
models and real
subsystems. A flexible
hardware configuration
enables simulation
models to be integrated
without need to
make intrusive model
changes.
