Linux ERT target uses heavily real-time capabilities
- of real-time variant of the Linux
- kernel. The resulting control system supports sampling frequencies
- up to 20 kHz.
Current version of the Linux ERT target is optimized to use the -proper Linux kernel timing mechanism with bounded maximal latencies. -Matlab/Simulink running on GNU/Linux desktop system as development -system is supported. More information about current version can be -found -in Michal -Sojka's blog post. UIO driver and blockset has been implemented to -support -Humusoft data acquisition cards (MF624 for now).
+Humusoft + MF624 data acquisition card.

++ More documentation about the UIO driver can be found + on DCE + HW Wiki page.
++ The Bhanderi's ComediToolbox + suitable for most Linux Comedi driver supported analog and digital + inputs/output cards has been successfuly tested with ert_linux target. The little updated version + with target configuration example is available in lintarget project + download area. +
++ The basic blocks for CAN messages sending and receiption + under Linux are implemented. +
