How to Download and Install Plecs Blockset License File

Plecs Blockset is a software package that allows you to simulate power electronic circuits in Simulink. To use Plecs Blockset, you need a license file (*.lic) that contains the information about your purchased products and expiration date. In this article, we will show you how to download and install the Plecs Blockset license file on different platforms.

Downloading the Plecs Blockset License File

If you have purchased Plecs Blockset from Plexim or an authorized distributor, you should receive an email with a link to download your license file. Alternatively, you can log in to your account on the Plexim website and download your license file from there. If you do not have an account or a license file, you can request a time-limited trial or student license from the Plexim website.

Installing the Plecs Blockset License File

Once you have downloaded your license file (*.lic), you need to copy it to your hard disk. The location of the license file depends on your platform and whether you want to use it for all users or only for yourself. Here are the steps for installing the Plecs Blockset license file on different platforms:

Windows

Run the installer executable by double-clicking it. You can choose to install Plecs Blockset for the current user or all users of a machine. To install Plecs Blockset for all users, you need administrator privileges.

Start Plecs Blockset by opening Simulink and selecting Plecs from the Library Browser.

Mac OS X

Open the downloaded disk image by double-clicking it and copy the folder PLECS Blockset (x.y) to the Application folder or to another location of your choice.

Run the application PLECS.app inside the folder PLECS Blockset (x.y) by double-clicking it. This will register Plecs Blockset with MATLAB and Simulink.

Start Plecs Blockset by opening Simulink and selecting Plecs from the Library Browser.

Linux

Untar with tar -xzf filename.tar.gz in a directory of your choice. This will create a new sub-directory named plecs containing the required files.

Start PLECS by executing the program PLECS in the folder plecs. This will register Plecs Blockset with MATLAB and Simulink.

Start Plecs Blockset by opening Simulink and selecting Plecs from the Library Browser.

Using Plecs Blockset

Plecs Blockset allows you to build and simulate power electronic circuits in Simulink using graphical components and schematic diagrams. You can also use Plecs Coder to generate C code from your Plecs models and run them on hardware platforms. Plecs PIL enables you to perform processor-in-the-loop simulations with your target hardware.

Building a Plecs Model

To build a Plecs model, you need to add a Plecs Circuit block from the Plecs library to your Simulink model. Then, you can double-click on the Plecs Circuit block to open the schematic editor and draw your circuit using the components from the Plecs component library. You can also use custom components or import components from other sources. You can connect your Plecs Circuit block to other Simulink blocks using input and output ports.

Simulating a Plecs Model

To simulate a Plecs model, you need to configure the simulation settings in the Plecs Circuit block dialog. You can choose the solver type, the simulation time, the sample time, and other options. You can also specify parameters and initial conditions for your circuit components. Then, you can run the simulation by clicking on the Start button in Simulink. You can view the simulation results using scopes, displays, or other Simulink blocks.

Generating Code from a Plecs Model

To generate code from a Plecs model, you need to use Plecs Coder. Plecs Coder allows you to generate ANSI-C code from your Plecs models that can be compiled and executed on various hardware platforms. You can configure the code generation settings in the Plecs Circuit block dialog. You can choose the target platform, the code format, the optimization level, and other options. You can also specify custom code templates or functions to customize your code. Then, you can generate the code by clicking on the Generate Code button in Simulink. You can view the generated code files in the specified output folder.

Performing Processor-in-the-Loop Simulation with a Plecs Model

To perform processor-in-the-loop simulation with a Plecs model, you need to use Plecs PIL. Plecs PIL allows you to run your generated code on your target hardware and communicate with Simulink in real time. You can configure the PIL settings in the Plecs Circuit block dialog. You can choose the communication interface, the baud rate, and other options. You can also specify custom initialization or termination functions for your PIL simulation. Then, you can start the PIL simulation by clicking on the Start PIL button in Simulink. You can view the PIL simulation results using scopes, displays, or other Simulink blocks. aa16f39245
