Pulse Real-Time Target Machine
Scalable Desktop System for Control Design Innovation and Controller Testing
The Pulse real-time target machine accelerates innovation by allowing a seamless transition between Simulink® desktop simulation, real-time control design prototyping, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing. As your projects grow, the Pulse real-time target machine scales with you—simply extend I/O functionality while maintaining a compact footprint.
The Pulse real-time target machine is designed for prototyping control designs and entry- and component-level HIL testing on your desktop or in your lab. Whether you are a control engineer prototyping control designs or a test engineer testing and validating actual controllers, you can easily expand and configure the machine’s setup with the respective connectivity requirements.
- Seamless Simulink Integration
Experience the workflow integration by seamlessly switching between desktop simulation and real-time testing.
- Rapid Control Design Innovation
Use the test system as the prototype controller connected to your hardware and test and refine your design in real time. Get immediate results and accelerate your iteration cycles.
- Controller Validation with Confidence
The Pulse real-time target machine simulates your plant as a digital twin for comprehensive validation and certification of your controller.
- Wide Range of I/O Connectivity and Protocols
Profit from a wide range of I/O modules, including analog and digital I/Os, PWM signals, and industry-specific protocols, such as CAN and Serial.
- Real-Time Performance
Run real-time applications on the CPU or the built-in FPGA and achieve closed-loop sample rates in the MHz range.
- Faster Time-to-Market
Streamline your development for faster innovation. The Pulse real-time target machine accelerates project completion, helping you to stay ahead.
