- - - T H I S P R O J E C T M O V E D T O G I T H U B - - - A framework for the implementation of advanced real-time control systems which uses signal/block-based schematics (like Simulink) extended by several features like state machines and online-exchangeable sub-simulations. Besides, this framework properly handles multiple threads, their communication, allows to synchronise control systems to external events (e.g. variable timers or incoming network packages) and provides many other nice features. Because of a high-level schematic-description language -- in form of provided Scilab commands -- only a minimal implementation-effort (no error-prone C-programming) is required.

...It demonstrates proportional, integral, and derivative controllers and their features as well as anti-windup and control loop update rate. It uses a DC motor controlled by an h-bridge and an optical quadrature encoder for feedback. It uses timers, counters, and interrupts to generate PWM to control the speed of the motor, encoder pulse counting, and control loop updates.
