HARDWARE PROFILE SELECTION

Prior to opening a model in PARS, you need to select the target hardware profile that will
be used for the model development, allocation and generation. This enables PARS to
populate the fields for the DSP and FPGA task masks in order for you to be able to select
the processor name from the drop-down box in each of the masked subsystem.

You can do this from the PARS Control Panel via the ‘Tool’ Menu (Tool->PARS Options), or by
calling ‘

PARSOptions

’ in the Matlab command prompt.

Figure 41 - Selecting a hardware profile

In the PARSOptions panel, the ‘Hardware Profile’ is a drop-down box that lists the currently installed
hardware profiles you may choose from. Pick one and press ‘Accept’. This profile will remain in
effect until you change it again.

NOTE: When a PARS model is open, the ‘Tool’ menu option is grayed-out to discourage you from
changing options during an active development session. You should not change PARS options while
working with a model.

Please see Sec. 4.8. Hardware Description File, below, for additional details on adding your own
hardware profiles to your PARS installation.
