You can use MATLAB Version R2016b or later to evaluate expressions written in MATLAB syntax in the Simulation Toolkit. You must install MATLAB and set up your modeling tools to call and use it.

  • For successful integration, you must use the 64-bit version of MATLAB to align it with the 64-bit version of modeling tools, e.g., MagicDraw or Cameo Systems Modeler.
  • To enable the Integrations menu, you must change the perspective to Full Featured, System Engineer, or Software Architect (from the main menu, select Options > Perspectives > Perspectives, select Full Featured, System Engineer, or Software Architect, and click Apply).


To integrate a modeling tool with MATLAB

  1. From the main menu, click Tools > Integrations. The Integrations dialog opens.



  2. Select MATLAB and click Integrate/Remove Integration. The MATLAB directory selection dialog opens.



    Java is bundled together with the MATLAB X86-64 installation and is selected automatically. However, if you are using Apple Silicone Macs you must specify it manually. MATLAB 2023b requires JDK8 and 2024a (or later versions) work with JDK8, 11 and 17.

  3. Click Browse to specify the MATLAB home directory, e.g., C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2016b.

  4. Click OK and restart your system or the modeling tool.
