Number of bits: short
Bit length of C short data type for test hardware
Model Configuration Pane: Hardware Implementation
Description
The Number of bits: short parameter specifies the bit length of the C
short data type for the
hardware that you use to test code.
Selecting a device by using the Device vendor and Device type parameters sets a device-specific value for this parameter.
Dependencies
This parameter is enabled only if you can modify it for the selected hardware.
Settings
16 (default) | 8 | 24 | 32The bit length must be an integer multiple of 8 that is less than or equal
to 32. Different devices have
different settings available for this
parameter.
Recommended Settings
| Application | Setting |
|---|---|
| Debugging | No impact |
| Traceability | No impact |
| Efficiency | Target specific |
| Safety precaution | No impact when Test hardware is the same as production hardware is selected. If it is not selected, no recommendation. |
