IPROM Documentation

If you're looking looking for information on how to use IPROM, the first two labs are a good place to start. Also, if you open the IPROM library iprom.mdl with Matlab, you can double-click on most of the blocks in there and then click on 'Help' in the dialog window that appears. The information available on those help pages is currently still minimal, but it'll grow in due time.

Eventually, this will be a real documentation page for IPROM. Right now, I'll just list a few issues that may trip you up when you start working with IPROM. If you have any questions, please let me know, and I'll update this page according to your feedback.

• Make sure to start Matlab in your IPROM directory, or to run the script startup.m in your IPROM directory if you started Matlab in some other directory. Without the initialization performed by this script, IPROM will not work!
• When creating a new IPROM simulation, always start with the model blank.mdl that comes with the IPROM distribution. It looks like any other new model, but it comes with a number of default settings that IPROM requires. If you create a new model with the New Model menu item, chances are you'll see some strange error message when running your simulation.
• When working with a Matlab Expression block, make sure to set the number of outputs correctly (i.e., equal to the dimension of the result of your expression). I really feel that Simulink ought to take care of this automatically, but it doesn't...
