To use the BlockImporter Import command, the Maple-MATLAB(R) link must be set up and functioning correctly.

To communicate with MATLAB(R) and Simulink(R), the Maple-MATLAB link must operate correctly.

To test the link between MATLAB/Simulink and Maple, execute, in Maple, the command  . Success is indicated by a NULL return, failure raises an error or a warning. If the test is not successful, follow the instructions in Matlab[setup] to configure the link.
