Calling ez Functions from Other Programs

[wyim]

Hi,

I was wondering if it would be possible to call call ez functions like
shown below in a precompiled program sending signals through the USB.
For example, would it be possible to be running a MATLAB program and
somehow make function calls like the following:

// examples of ez commands

ez.Cls(BackColor or self.BackColor)
ez.SetBmFont(2)
ez.SetXY(self.X, self.Y)
ez.SetColor(BorderColor or self.BorderColor)
ez.Box(self.X, self.Y, self.X + self.Width-1, self.Y +
self.Height-1)

Is there a library I can add to to my Matlab script so that it can
send the equivalent signals through the USB?

Help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

I think Matt mentioned a function that sounds like what you want in
the post: Calling Lua script.

"In the external command mode I am able to call a lua script that is
stored in the user ROM area with the RUN_LUA_ROM (0xA8) command."

Hello,
         You could connect the device to the computer via a serial cable and use this library to send text commands to the device http://www.mathworks.com/products/instrument/supportedio13781.html (untested). You could then eval every message sent using lua eval function. This might actually be quite useful for debugging. Please post back with your results.
Thanks,
