Introduction
Raptor-Dev is a library of customizable Simulink blocks that allows developers to quickly create custom software for Raptor-compatible controllers and displays. Developers work directly in the Simulink environment with Raptor-Dev blocks as well as native Simulink blocks and features. The Raptor-Dev library blocks facilitate interaction between Simulink and all of the input, output and communication channels of the control module hardware. For example, the Raptor-Dev library includes blocks to read analog inputs or actuate low-side drive outputs. The Raptor-Dev library also contains other useful block-sets for many applications, such as OBD fault management and data logging. Even J1939 or Modbus Raptor library blocks are available. Common to all of the Raptor library blocks is that they are easy and intuitive to use. The Raptor-Dev libraries vastly reduce software complexity and speed-up development, and they eliminate the need to understand the low-level logic necessary to manage controller hardware.
- Raptor-Dev Base Library The Raptor-Dev Library contains essential library blocks for development. Among other things, this library includes blocks to access the hardware inputs and outputs. Examples of such blocks include analog, digital or frequency inputs as well as digital, PWM or H-bridge output blocks. Additionally, there are blocks for build configuration, lookup tables, faults, CAN communication and application monitoring.
- Raptor-Dev Data Logging Library The Raptor-Dev Data Logging Library allows users to quickly and easily configure data logging to a USB stick on Raptor display hardware.
- Raptor-Dev Display Library This library is essential for any Raptor display hardware. The library blocks include drawing functions (draw text, shapes or display images), menu/button interaction definitions, pre-built gauges and other powerful tools that make display development easy and intuitive.
- Raptor-Dev J1939 Library This library offers an easy approach to add J1939 support to any existing or new Raptor project. It abstracts all of the complex network management and transmission requirements of the J1939 protocol allowing for fast development of a J1939-compatible application. The J1939 Library seamlessly interfaces with the OBD Fault Manager blocks to provide a large number of J1939 diagnostic messages. All of the functions required to create an OBD-HD compliant application are included in the Raptor J1939 Library.
- Raptor-Dev Controls Foundation Library This library functions as a general library, with blocks designed for signal processing and characterization (low-pass filter, rate limiter, sensor characterization, deadband and arbitration logic), general controls development (PI, PID control, derivatives, integrals) and fault management (fault triggering, detection).
Raptor-Dev provides the speed of conventional Rapid Control Prototyping tools combined with production code generation targeting automotive-grade production ECUs and displays.

Third Party Calibration Tools
While New Eagle's Raptor-Cal offers the most integrated support of typical calibration methodology workflows, we understand that you may already be familiar with a particular third-party calibration tool. As a result, Raptor-Controllers and Raptor-Displays support the industry standard XCP protocol, available in common calibration tools, as seen below.

Purchase
To develop software using Raptor-Dev beyond the capabilities offered with Lite mode, you will require a license for Raptor-Dev. Raptor-Dev 2017b and later include licenses to build for all standard hardware targets. This gives access to all of our standard Raptor-enabled ECUs and displays. In addition to support for all the standard hardware targets, the Raptor-Dev license enables access to the built-in Raptor Data Logging, Raptor Display, Raptor Modbus and Raptor Telematics (2017b_SP1+) Toolboxes. Certain special application libraries for Raptor-Dev, such as the J1939 library, require an additional license.
Note that all available Raptor-Dev libraries, including special application libraries, will appear in the Simulink Library Browser when Raptor-Dev is installed; however, users will not be able to build models with any library blocks for which they do not have licenses.
Customers have access to the latest software releases for a period of one (1) year after their purchase. Each software release adds new features and addresses bug fixes. If customers wish to maintain access to new software releases, they can purchase software and hardware maintenance licenses. Maintenance licenses are valid for one (1) year and can be renewed in perpetuity. Software Maintenance licenses allow customers to download the latest releases of software products, such as Raptor-Dev or its associated application libraries. Hardware Maintenance licenses allow customers to access updates to hardware-specific features.
Example 1: A customer would like to use Raptor-Dev Simulink libraries to develop software to control an electric vehicle using the VeeCAN 800. They plan to flash the software on the all-in-one display/controller Raptor VeeCAN 800. The customer purchases one license (P/N: ASM-RAP-001) of Raptor-Dev base software that allows building models on the Raptor VeeCAN 800.
Example 2: A customer has already been using Raptor-Dev to develop software on a CM0711 controller for two years. Since they purchased a base Raptor-Dev License (P/N: ASM-RAP-001) and appropriate hardware target (P/N: RAP-SW-HCM-5604-036-1303) for the CM0711, there have been a number of new features added to Raptor-Dev as well as specific improvements and new I/O capabilities that have been unlocked for the CM0711. The customer decides to purchase the Raptor-Dev Software Maintenance (RAP-SM-001) and the CM0711 Hardware Maintenance (RAP-SM-HCM-5604-036-1303) to access these new features.
All Raptor product family licenses have options for both USB-based dongles and node-locked licenses.
