Abstract

The objective of this practicum is to design and realize the communication between the ""FW 36 Remote Control"" and a PC via Controller Area Network (CAN) Bus (in hard real-time environment). The FW 36 Remote Control is used to control the manipulator movement of Truck-mounted concrete pumps ofSchwing Company .The control system is designed in the Matlab/Simulink environment. With the growing importance of timing accuracy in simulating control systems during design and development, there is an increased need for these simulations to run in a real­time environment. This practicum further more focuses on software tools that support hard real-time environments to run real-time simulations. In this system, Matlab/Simulink was selected as real-time computer aided control design software for demonstrating the real-time simulation.
