Add-ons can customise simulation
software
For modelling and simulation of systems, Adept Scientific claims there is no other software on the PC which can match VisSim for a combination of power and usability.
For modelling and simulation of systems, there is no other software on the PC which can match VisSim for a combination of power and usability However, its power and breadth of application can be extended with several custom packages and add-ons

Simulation and modelling for Mathcad at low cost
Adept Scientific has released VisSim for Mathcad - a special version of the leading dynamic simulation and modelling software, designed to integrate with Mathcad 2000 and 2001
Aiding training in power station control
Simulation software provides insight and saves training time at Surry nuclear power station
These make VisSim even more applicable to certain sectors.
For example, engineers are shortening the development cycle of motion and motor control systems using VisSim/Motion, a package that includes a pre-built library that simulates motors, controllers, sensors, transforms, loads and voltage sources.
Five high-fidelity motor models, including AC induction, Brushless DC (PMSM), and stepper motor models are included.
VisSim/Embedded Controls Developer is software for the rapid prototyping and creation of embedded controllers for the Texas Instruments C2000 DSPs.
With this, you can build a model of your entire system, including the control algorithm and the plant, generate production code, and then download the code to the target DSP.
VisSim/Real-TimePro extends the power of VisSim by integrating a simulation with a physical process for real-time hardware-in-the-loop simulation and validation.
The interface to real-world hardware is through computer I/O cards, high-speed motion control interface cards, or serial port connections to a PLC or DCS.
No code generation or programming is involved in configuring an HIL system with VisSim/Real-TimePRO.
If you're modelling a braking and suspension system, the trajectory of a missile or the cost of a shipment and scheduling system, you'll be able to find the optimal values for the design variables using VisSim/OptimizePRO.
It can calculate the optimal PID controller gains that give minimal time to setpoint, plus minimal overshoot by allowing the user to specify cost functions such as steady-state error, and rise and settling times.
These give just an introduction to the world of VisSim. Request a free brochure from Adept Scientific ...
