VisSim Professional 8.0
Features
Modeling Features
AudioIn and audioOut blocks read and write data from .WAV files or Windows audio devices.
DelayedSwitch block lets you control the delay for the ‘on’ and ‘off’ commands found in process control.
TimeOfDay block provides hour, minute, second, day, month, year with interactive update.
MinElement and maxElement blocks find the value and location of matrix elements.
VisSim Browser lets you explore the VisSim menu hierarchy, making it very convenient to insert blocks from deeply nested menu trees.
Knobs and Gauges lets you specify high-quality graphical behavior of interactive gauges, meters, dials, switches, and knobs. This gives a ‘dashboard’ faceplate to drive and monitor your VisSim models.
Spectrum display displays the amplitude of vector elements with a vertical bar for each element.
Plots with many data points now repaint many times faster
Simulation Features
Subsystem superclocking allows all blocks within a Compound block to run at a user-defined rate faster than the overall simulation rate. It also allows for containment of high-frequency components, iterating through matrixes, or modeling of partial differential equations.
Adaptive Adams-Moulton and BDF integration algorithms are two new integration methods for solving adaptive step stiff systems.
Real-time scale factor lets you run real-time simulations at multiples or fractions of real time.
Auto check pointing lets your automatically save diagram states at given intervals to a unique file name composed of the original file name plus a time stamp suffix. The file contains the current state of all variables in the diagram, letting you re-run simulations from any check pointed state.
Start-up scripting allows C or Matrix initialisation syntax.
VisSim - Maple interface allows reading and writing of scalar and matrix data to the Maple workspace, as well as execution of Maple script. Brings a fast and smooth interface between VisSim and Maple.
Import block feature allows ‘,’ as decimal point, and allow ‘.’ as a field separator. The import block now understands hh:mm:ss.ff as a time specification format.
Export block feature allows ‘,’ as decimal point, and ‘.’ as a field separator.
Visualisation Features
VisSim Tutor lets you annotate a VisSim diagram with interactive help balloons so that others can read and understand it better.
General Features
Ctrl-TAB switches to the next window; Ctrl-F4 closes current window.
Block display ordering allows "Bring Forward" or "Send to back" of bezel blocks.
Block menu tree is an alternate method to insert blocks into diagram.
