Modbus TCP Client

Support of Modbus^® TCP clients is now available complementing the already existing Modbus^® TCP protocol support. You can run multiple clients on one target machine, either controlling servers in the same network or separate networks. Asynchronous data exchange helps you to save compute resources and test faster.

IO324 - Versatile Analog and Digital I/O Module

The new IO324 provides a high analog and digital I/O channel count. The digital I/O lines are configurable for power electronics controls, Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) simulation (PWM, capture, encoders, resolvers), and communications (SPI, I2C, …) applications. The IO324 also provides a Simulink^®-programmable FPGA, well suited for demanding motion/motor controls and entry-level power electronics HIL testing applications.

Native Onboard Modbus TCP Server Protocol Support

Benefit from native onboard Modbus TCP server support on the Ethernet interfaces of real-time target machines, allowing for data exchange with Modbus-enabled devices and systems.

ARINC 825 Communication Protocol Support

Speedgoat support for ARINC 825 protocol enables CAN communication without having to design your own CAN structure. Leverage the ARINC 825 Simulink^® driver blocks with the IO602 module for avionic applications.

DNP3 Protocol Support

Speedgoat now offers DNP3 master and outstation support using the onboard Ethernet interfaces of the target machines or a range of plug-in Ethernet I/O modules. DNP3 enables component interoperability, supervisory control, data acquisition, and monitoring in electric power systems and is commonly used in water supply and the oil and gas industry. 

New Bundles for HDL I/O Functionality

With R2021a, Speedgoat has introduced two bundles for HDL I/O functionality, designed for communication and motion control in conjunction with HDL Coder™.

The Communication HDL I/O Blockset includes protocols such as SPI, I2C, SENT, and Dshot. The Motion Control HDL I/O Blockset enables PWM, and en-/decoder measurement and simulation, including Quadrature, SSI, BiSS, EnDAT, and Cam/Crank. 

R2020b Simulink® Real-Time Major Update

The Simulink^® Real-Time™ R2020b release is a significant update with several feature enhancements and a new cost-effective MATLAB^® license option for HIL testing workflows. Find out more about the latest capabilities with R2020b.

CANopen: Further Extension of the Communication Protocol Range

The new IO644 CANopen Slave I/O Module is ideal for rapid control prototyping in industrial automation plants such as motor controllers, sensors, I/O stations, and robots. Furthermore, the IO644 can be used to perform Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) simulation for PLC testing, virtual commissioning, and factory acceptance tests.

FlexRay: Ensuring Deterministic and High Data Rate Transmissions

The new IO623 FlexRay I/O module with up to four physical FlexRay controllers (A/B channel) ensures deterministic transmission with high data rates up to 10 Mbit/s per channel and high fault tolerance. 

The FIBEX configuration can be quickly loaded into a dedicated software tool that exports the configuration. The new Speedgoat I/O Blockset for FlexRay provides full access to the Simulink^® Real-Time™, Simulink^®, and MATLAB^® ecosystem.
