Xilinx has added graphics commands to the Simulink® model popup menu that will help you rapidly create and analyze your System Generator design. As shown below, you can access these commands by right-clicking the Simulink model canvas and selecting the appropriate Xilinx command:
Figure 1. Xilinx Commands
A detailed description of the additional Xilinx commands is provided below.
Xilinx BlockAdd | Facilitates the rapid addition of Xilinx blocks (and a limited set of Simulink blocks) to a Simulink model. |
Xilinx Tools > Save as blockAdd default | This feature allows you to pre-configure a block, then add multiple copies of the pre-configured block using the BlockAdd feature. |
Xilinx BlockConnect | Facilitates the rapid connection of blocks in a Simulink model |
Xilinx Tools > Terminate | Facilitates the rapid addition of Simulink terminator blocks on open output ports and/or Xilinx Constant Blocks on open input ports. |
Xilinx Waveform Viewer | The Xilinx Waveform Viewer displays a waveform diagram of selected signals in your System Generator design. Waveforms can be displayed in the Waveform Viewer after running a Simulink simulation. Inputs and outputs of blocks in the Xilinx Blockset can be displayed in the Waveform Viewer. |
Xilinx Clear Waveform Selections | Deletes all of the waveforms currently displayed in the Waveform Viewer, and closes the Waveform Viewer. |
