Bachmann introduces latest version M-Target for Simulink
Bachmann electronic presents the new version of its software solution M-Target for Simulink®. A key highlight of M-Target 2.75 is hot-standby redundancy, which provides protection for critical applications with high availability requirements.
With M-Target 2.75, developers can design and simulate their application programs directly in the graphical Simulink® environment as usual and automatically transfer them to real-time controllers—without any manual programming. Hot-standby redundancy now also enables applications to be executed in parallel on two physically separate CPU systems. In the event of an error, the standby system takes over control seamlessly, without interrupting the process or causing value jumps. This is particularly relevant for systems in harsh environments, safety-critical applications or scenarios where even short downtimes would be expensive. Redundancy extends across all system levels – from hardware to the maintenance interface – and is fully integrated into Bachmann's engineering tools such as SolutionCenter.
In addition to redundancy, M-Target 2.75 offers extended bluecom® blocks, which improve data transmission in time-critical networks. New additions include function blocks for generating, compressing, and storing WAV audio files from structure-borne noise measurement data from the AIC214 and AIC206 condition monitoring modules. In addition, errors in the logging and SVI environment have been corrected, security updates have been implemented, and support for current MATLAB®/Simulink® versions (up to 2025a) has been added.
The software remains backward compatible, but requires M-Base 4.85 and the redundancy module from version 1.23R for the hot standby function. The solution can be optionally combined with the redundancy option of the atvise® scada system for high-availability visualizations.
Bachmann electronic is expanding its M-Target software solution with hot-standby redundancy for model-based development: Critical applications now run with double security in the new version 2.75.
