MotoHawk® is Woodward's flagship code-generation toolbox. The MotoHawk installation is accessible as part of the MATLAB/Simulink application.
Here's a list of all the Wiki articles about MotoHawk. Here is a listing of Wiki MotoHawk block help, by category.
MotoHawk, a model-based, code-generation tool, provides engineers with the ability to more easily create embedded software for Woodward Modules. The MotoHawk tool has hundreds of specialized blocks, and, as with Simulink, allows you to simply drag these blocks around and connect them, to build your model. These blocks are used to generate code that creates an interface to ControlCore, Woodward's embedded operating system for small, rugged environments, such as an ECU or a Data Logger.
MotoHawk is a critical component in a model-based software design process.
See the MotoHawk FAQ for helpful hints on using the MotoHawk environment. Or consult the online MotoHawk support, for further information.
To download MotoHawk, check for latest version recommendations. For user license information, see Licensing. See the MotoHawk Style Guide for Woodward's suggestions at making a MotoHawk model easier to read.

You can find the help documentation for the MotoHawk library below, or by searching by block name. See: MotoHawk Blockset Help
Design Principles
As a developer of MotoHawk, these are the fundamental rules that must be obeyed. It is a mission statement of sorts that drives the high quality, flexibility and consistency of MotoHawk. It also illustrates the direction of our technology as we strive to improve our tool.
All input/output ports are integer types
With many different module types and interfaces, it is possible to have modules that do not support floating point. Therefore all edges to the OS must have integer types.
All blocks are as complicated as they need to be
Due the variation in applications developed by MotoHawk, developers want to use different behaviors in vastly different ways. Therefore, blocks that overcomplicate a basic behavior are not desired.
MATLAB-version independent
MotoHawk versions have been designed so that they work with all versions of MATLAB, 6.5.1 to the current. Beginning with MotoHawk 2009a, support for older MATLAB versions is being discontinued. See table below for MotoHawk / MATLAB version support:

Toolchain independent
Beginning with MotoHawk 2009b, alpha level support for GCC is included in MotoHawk. GCC is considered Alpha level in 2009b and 2010a, and Beta forward.
For more information, see Using GCC with MotoHawk.
64-Bit
MotoHawk Versions Prior to 2010a Do Not Support 64-Bit Windows, Windows 7, or 64-Bit Matlab.
Support for 64-bit Windows 7 was added in MotoHawk 2010a. Only 32-Bit MATLAB is supported by MotoHawk 2010a. 64-Bit Matlab is NOT supported in MH2010a.
64-Bit MATLAB is supported in MotoHawk 2010b and Higher.
Windows 8 is not Currently Supported in any MotoHawk Release.
The MotoHawk Blockset
The MotoHawk Blockset supports many different behaviors including I/O, fault management, calibration, plus many many more. It is a rich set of behaviors available in a palette in Simulink.
