FMI Interface: Real Time and General FMU Export
(Standard Interface) Simulate → FMI Interface → Real Time Analysis
(Standard Interface) Simulate → FMI Interface → General FMU Export
Runs the selected event and exports necessary files as a FMU (V2).
For the option: | Do the following: |
|---|---|
Controls Plant/Mechatronics system selection | Specify whether you are creating a new controls plant, modifying an existing one or using a mechatronics control system. Enter the name of the new plant, existing plant or mechatronics control systems in the text box to the right. Mechatronics option is available only when mechatronics plugin is loaded. |
Event | Specify an event only analysis that has been created previously which is supposed to run when the FMU is imported by the primary. |
Input Signals | Enter names of state variables that you want to use as plant inputs. Select From Pinput to enter state variables from existing plant inputs. Only available for new/existing controls plant selection. These are automatically picked up from the control systems in case of mechatronics system. |
Output Signals | Enter names of state variables that you want to use as plant outputs. Select From Poutput to enter state variables from existing plant outputs. Only available for new/existing controls plant selection. These are automatically picked up from the control systems in case of mechatronics system. |
Re-order Adams Inputs Signal(s)/Re-order Adams Output Signal(s) | The reorder of plant inputs and outputs change the order of the signals in the PINPUT and POUTPUT entities. This is useful when you already created the PINPUT and POUTPUT entities and at a later point in time (during plant export) would like to reorder the signals within them. Only available for new/existing controls plant selection. The order is pre-determined in case of mechatronics system as follows the signal order as defined in the control system. When multiple control systems are selected, the signals are ordered in the order of control system selection. Important: The order of signals should be same during plant export and plant import. Otherwise, simulation could fail and produce undesired results. |
Target FMI Parent | Only available (SIMulation Workbench) in case of real time FMU export to specify the real time FMI parent which would import this FMU. Optimizations are done when exporting the FMU for better performance with that FMI parent. |
 | Clicking on this button opens up a dialog where model parameters can be selected for export. Parameter variables, hard points, mass properties, UDE design variables and property files are supported. This button is also disabled if Encrypt Model option is chosen. |
Add to FMU | Use this field to select the files that will be copied/bundled into the FMU. When an FMU ‘consumer’ application loads the Adams FMU, these additional files will be present in the same working directory (‘resources’ folder inside the FMU) as the Adams model files. |
 | Checking this checkbox will allow user to encrypt the Adams Solver dataset file (.adm) exported within the fmu. Such encrypted Adams Solver dataset files will have the extension .adme. If any of the model parameters are exposed then this feature will be disabled. This checkbox is available only for FMU v1.0 and FMU v2.0. Solver will not allow a LIST argument on an object command in encrypted models. |
SmartConnect FMU | This option is available only when the target software selected is FMU v2. It stores model files in SmartConnect FMU. For more information please refer SmartConnect FMU. |
