How to make S-function for simcoupler for co-simulation of MATLAB and PSIM?

As i am using Matlab version 2015a and PSIM version 9.0 and i want to use simcouple to perform cosimulation between Matlab and PSIM but it generates following error when we try to attach simulation schematic of PSIM in simcoupler.

''Error in UIControl callback"

We have two .m files in PSIM directory slblocks.m and PSimDialog.m and i run both of the programs and i have error in PSimDialog.m file.

Please guide me in this regard.

Thanks Muhammad Saleem

We need the complete error message about the error.

when i attache the simulation file of PSIM in the simulink using simcoupler then it generates an error when i press apply button. Following is the error message:

Error using PSimDialog>CloseBtn_Callback (line 217) Error reported by S-function 'SimCoupler' in 'chop1q_ifb_simulink_r_13/chop1q_ifb_psim': PSIM Message: %1 is not a valid Win32 application.

Error in gui_mainfcn (line 95) feval(varargin{:});

Error in PSimDialog (line 42) gui_mainfcn(gui_State, varargin{:});

Error in @(hObject,eventdata)PSimDialog('CloseBtn_Callback',hObject,eventdata,guidata(hObject))

Please guide me with error gerated by Matlab. Thanks

Solved: It works fine on Matlab R2011a and PSIM 9.0 version.

Hi,

What is the error message you encountered?

[Ahmet Unsal]

The problem is caused by the missing "SimCoupler" function. As mentioned above, 2 of the .m files are calling for SimCoupler. Just today, I wrote to psim about this problem and waiting for an answer. If you guys have any plausible solution for this issue, please let us know.

I have meet the same problem with you I want to co_simulation between PSIM and MATLAB , when I open the example of psim which it provided, and start the simcoupler. but some errors always hit my eyes.The errors are similar to you ,such as Error in PSimDialog. Idon't know how to deal with it. if you know this solution ,please tell me ,thanks very much!

PSIM 9.0 is not compatible with MatLab/Simulink R2015R. You must upgrade to PSIM 10 or later. Another option is to use MatLab R2013a or earlier version.
