PCMmode and Vscontrl is 4

[sunshine-wangzhe]

Dear all:

Here are some of my processes

cmake .. -DBUILD_OPENFAST_SIMULINK_API=ON

When both PCMode and Vscontrl are set to 0, I am able to run the program normally and obtain results. However, when I set both PCMode and Vscontrl to 4, it prompts me that the Simulink interface file has not been configured. Can you explain why this happens? Additionally, when PCMode and Vscontrl are set to 4, how can I get it to run and work properly on Ubuntu 22.04?

Please give me some help！

Dear @sunshine-wangzhe,

To use OpenFAST with Simulink, you must compile the OpenFAST library and build it into a mex function in Simulink. This must then be called from Simulink: it cannot be used from the command line as you are attempting.

There is some documentation on this here: https://openfast.readthedocs.io/en/main/source/install/index.html#simulink
