By 'CASPER tools' are you referring to recent git commits of the Simulink libraries from the ska-sa repo? If so, I know what your problem below is... > All the links to the yellow blocks are broken.

It seems that older versions of Matlab/Simulink are not forwards- compatible with the .mdl files generated by the latest incarnation of Matlab/Simulink. When the library is loading you will notice a bunch of error messages scrolling past. These are not the usual Warnings that can be ignored but result in a crippled Simulink library with much of it missing (as seen in the simulink explorer). Your .mdl file has links that link back to this crippled library and much of it is missing (hence broken links). Your solution is to install the latest compatible spawn from Mathworks. We may have to look into saving our libraries so that they are compatible with older Matlab/Simulink versions as continually upgrading Matlab/Simulink is expensive, time intensive, and does not usually come with any improvements that relate to us.
