hil_monitor_stop

Deprecated

The HIL API MATLAB functions have been deprecated in favour of the new quanser.hardware.hil class, which has support for code generation for Quanser targets. Hence, with the new hil class it is possible to run MATLAB scripts in real-time on Quanser targets, while making use of the Quanser hardware.

Stops the specified monitor.

Syntax

err = hil_monitor_stop(monitor)

Description

Stops the specified monitor. Stopping a monitor does not delete it. Use the hil_monitor_delete function to free the resources associated with the monitor. A monitor that has been stopped, but not deleted, may be restarted using the hil_monitor_start function

If no err output is provided then it throws an exception if an error occurs. In generated code it prints the error message. Use hil_get_error_message to get the message associated with an error code.

Parameters

monitor

The monitor handle returned by hil_monitor_create_interrupt_reader.

Outputs

err

A negative error code or zero on success.

Examples

monitor = hil_monitor_create_interrupt_reader(board, 0);
hil_monitor_start(monitor);                         % Start the monitor
for i=1:10
    states = hil_monitor_read_interrupt(monitor);   % Queries interrupt source 0. Does not return until the interrupt occurs.
    ...
end;
hil_monitor_stop(monitor);  % Always good to call hil_monitor_stop even if monitor stops itself
hil_monitor_delete(monitor);
