Model-Based Design Toolbox for MPC57xx Automotive Version 3.0.0 Installing S32K blocks will be uninstalled.
Is there a solution?

Hello hayaoki7‌,

Thank you for your message and for your interest in our toolbox!

The mentioned behaviour is now tracked internally as AST-1325.

If you want to have installed the both toolboxes (MPC and S32K) they must not be installed in the same location. Please follow the next instructions:

1. Open Matlab, go to Preferences -> Add-Ons and under Installation Folder please add the desired location followes by \S32K (I typed C:AddOns\S32K)

2. Install the mltbx for S32K.

3. In Matlab, Set Path, Pres Default and Save or go to [C:\AddOns]\S32K\Toolboxes\NXP_MBDToolbox_S32K1xx, right click on folder code, go to Remove from Path -> Selected folder and subfolders.

4. In Matlab, go to Preferences -> Add-Ons and under Installation Folder please changed the desired location followes by \MPC (I typed C:AddOns\MPC)

5. Install the mltbx for MPC. 

6. Now you have the both toolboxes installed but only the MPC is in path. 

7. In order to use the S32K toolbox please go to C:\AddOns\S32K\Toolboxes\NXP_MBDToolbox_S32K1xx\code and run the mbd_s32k_path.m script. This will add also the S32K script in path.

Now you have the both toolboxes installed.

But what would I also recommend will be to remove from Matlab's path the toolbox that you are not using: only from path! For example if you don't use the S32K toolbox keep in path only the MPC Toolbox and reverse. You can remove from path using the script from the point number 3, and to add any of the toolbox the instruction 7 because the MPC and S32K have the same mechanism. 

Hope this helps, 

Marius!

Hi hayaoki7‌

What's the MATLAB revision you are using? I'm testing with MATLAB 2018b and there's no problem.

Thank you!

am using R2018A.

Is R2018B better?

Thank you

Hello,

Will there be an other release in the future which supports the MPC5777C?

Regards,

Luca

Hi lucabarbiero‌,

Currently we have added support for the MPC574x derivatives B/C/G/P supported by NPX SDK 2.0.0 RTM release.

Once the support for MPC577x will be enabled in a SDK RTM release, we are going to add them into Simulink too. Most likely the next release of this toolbox (denoted 3.1.0) will include such support.

Best regards,

Daniel

Hello, 

You need to place it in {Toolbox installation directory}\lic folder

Please refer to the step by step available in your {Toolbox installation directory}\help folder Model_Based_Design_Toolbox_MPC57xx_Series_Licensing_Guide.pdf or to https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/quick-reference-guide/MBDT-MPC57xx_QSG.pdf page 1-7

Hope this helps!

Hello dumitru-daniel.popa!

Is there an update on an expected release date for the 3.1.0 release to support the MPC5777x variant?  

Best-

Tom

Hi Thomas, 

According with our internal roadmap the MBDT MPC57xx 3.1.0 will be available in Q1 20192020. I can't give you an exact date because i've not yet closed the PRD but is going to be towards the end of the quarter.

Anything in particular that are you looking for ?

Best regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel-

Thanks for the response. I assume you meant Q1-2020 right?

We are developing a new ECU and would like to utilize the toolbox for further development.

Thx-

Tom

Hi Tom, 

Yes, 2020 - sorry for mistake. 

What kind of processor you want to use and which are the main functionalities you are looking for. If you want to be sure, some particular features will be present, please contact your account manager in NXP and tell him your requirements. 

Bottom line, we want to upgrade the MPC57xx toolbox to similar level of features as S32K1xx version 4.1.0

Best regards,
Daniel
