Platform API Package

Application programming interfaces for connecting to dSPACE platforms

The Platform API Package is a set of libraries to access dSPACE real-time platforms and dSPACE VEOS. It provides a convenient way to download and start/stop models and also gives high-level access to the model variables for reading, writing, stimulating, capturing, etc. 

  • Package containing automation libraries for accessing dSPACE systems
  • High-level libraries for convenient platform management and simulation model access
  • Compliant to ASAM XIL API standard 

The tool is suitable to be used in safety-related development projects according to ISO 26262:2018 for any automotive safety integrity level (ASIL).

Application Areas

The Platform API Package is a set of libraries to access and manage dSPACE real-time platforms and dSPACE VEOS. It provides a convenient way to download and start/stop models and also gives high-level access to the model variables for reading, writing, stimulating, capturing, etc. 

Key Benefits

  • Access to dSPACE real-time platforms and dSPACE VEOS
  • Support of Python or any .NET-compliant language
  • Support of ASAM XIL API standard
  • Create your own test scripts and test automation applications to access parameters and signals in your simulation
  • Automation interface to MATLAB®, e.g., for data processing

Functionality Description
XIL API support in .NET
  • Programming interface that complies with the ASAM XIL API standard for accessing the simulation model
  • MAPort support including read, write, and capture access plus stimulus support for most dSPACE platforms
  • Port management: e.g., for loading applications and setting the simulation state
  • XIL framework variable support, including unit conversion, supports advanced variable mapping features. This allows an improved decoupling of test scripts from simulation models, hence a better reuse of test scripts.
Platform Management API
  • Programming interface for downloading, starting and stopping a model running on a dSPACE real-time platform or on dSPACE VEOS
MATLABLIB2
  • Remote-control MATLAB to use its powerful mathematical function, e.g., for signal processing
