The LTI Viewer can display up to Seven different plot types

simultaneously, including step, impulse, Bode (magnitude and

phase or magnitude only), Nyquist, Nichols, sigma, pole/zero,
and I/O pole/zero

The SISO Design analyze and tune SISO feedback control systems
Using the SISO Design Tool, you can graphically tune the gains and
dynamics of the compensator (C) and prefilter (F)

root locus view to stabilize the feedback loop Enforce some minimum damping
and
Bode diagrams to adjust the bandwidth, check the gain and phase margins

SISO TOOL
You can perform the following tasks:

Manipulate closed-loop dynamics using root locus techniques.

Shape open-loop Bode responses.
Add compensator poles and zeros.
Add and tune lead/lag networks and notch filters.
Inspect closed-loop responses (using the LTI Viewer).
Adjust phase and gain margins.
Convert models between discrete and continuous time.
