VisSim’s unparalled power, ease of use, and reliability has made it a

required tool on thousands of engineering projects spanning a diverse
range of industries and disciplines, including motion control, closed-loop

Consider these benefits:
Using VisSim with MATLAB, SIMULINK and Maple
VisSim/MATLAB Integration
VisSim offers several easy-to-use features for integrating MATLAB files,
variables or functions within the VisSim simulation environment.

• MATLAB File Import: Standard VisSim/SIMULINK Translator

Benefits
Maximises Productivity
• Intuitive drag-and-drop block
diagram language is easy to learn
and use.
• Fully-integrated and full-function
development environment provides
everything you need to build,
simulate, validate, and optimise
your system models.
• Open architecture boosts your
efficiency by providing seamless
connections between VisSim and
any other Windows application.
Lowers Costs
• Model flaws located in a simulation
model are less costly to correct.
• Royalty-free distribution of VisSim

“High fidelity modelling of large scale projects can be
Saves Time
• Highly interactive and visual
simulation environment speeds the
pace of model development.
• Comprehensive set of
mathematical, engineering, and
scientific functions and ready-to-
use components greatly reduce
time to build system models.
• Model flaws can be detected and
corrected earlier in the design
phase.
Reduces Project Risks
• Selective password protection
means system models can be
shared without revealing
proprietary information.
• Diagram statistics and revision
history make it easy to track project
development, especially across
large, multi-platform groups.
VisSim transferFunction and
stateSpace blocks can be easily
configured to import MATLAB .m
or .MAT files that represent SISO
(single-input single-output)
transfer functions and/or MIMO
(multi-input multi-output) state-
space representations. System
designs developed in the MATLAB
environment can be imported into
VisSim and run with no loss of
performance.
• MatlabRead and MatlabWrite
blocks: VisSim includes
MatlabRead and MatlabWrite
blocks that enable variables to be
dynamically exchanged between
MATLAB and VisSim. MATLAB
variables (for example control
system coefficients or other
system parameters) can be used
in a VisSim model. VisSim system
simulation parameters can be
initialized through MATLAB script
files, and VisSim run from the
MATLAB command line, for
example to automate and perform
large Monte Carlo simulations.

The VisSim/SIMULINK Translator
allows SIMULINK users to import
SIMULINK V2, V3, V4 or V5 block
diagrams directly into VisSim.
The translator automatically
converts SIMULINK blocks into
equivalent VisSim blocks. The
SIMULINK block diagram structure,
logic and connectivity is completely
maintained in the translated VisSim
block diagram.
A simple wizard interface makes it
easy to select and translate
SIMULINK files. A log file is
automatically generated for each
translation making it easy to trace
any exceptions. Statistics are also
provided for the number of VisSim
blocks created, partially converted
blocks or unsupported blocks (if
any). Additionally, look-up tables
encountered during the translation
are automatically converted to
equivalent VisSim map blocks. In the
event the translated SIMULINK
model uses external MATLAB®
scripts, VisSim will automatically
invoke MATLAB and execute the

Andy Waite, Senior Designer, Emerson/Entech Control Engineering
VisSim-Maple Interface
The new VisSim-Maple interface
allows you to read and write scalar and
matrix data to the Maple workspace,
as well as execution of Maple scripts
within VisSim. This brings a fast and
smooth interface between VisSim and
the Maple mathematical problem-
solving system.
4. System Modelling
Complex systems are easily modelled by encapsulating blocks in hierarchical
groups.
VisSim simplifies the design cycle by letting you build system models in the form of block diagrams. Slide
blocks off the Blocks menu and into the work area, and wire them together with the mouse. Then use cut,
copy, paste, align and rotate commands to arrange blocks precisely where you want. Pop-up dialogue boxes
let you easily assign block parameters and initial conditions.
Comprehensive Block Library
In VisSim, blocks are your basic
design component. Each block
represents a specific mathematical
function. The function can be a simple
as a sine function or as complex as a
15th order transfer function. VisSim
provides a comprehensive set of over
125 mathematical, engineering and
scientific blocks, allowing you to
realise systems of any degree of
complexity.
Hierarchical Design
VisSim tames the complexity of large
system models by letting you
encapsulate blocks in hierarchical
groups. Subdiagrams of any
complexity can be contained in a
single compound block. Modular
construction becomes natural. The
top level diagram shows major
component connectivity, while
successive underlying levels reveal
deeper, local complexity. To
streamline the navigational process,
VisSim provides a diagram tree. as
well as “Goto” tags to jump to
specific locations in a model. And in
large project development where
multiple designers are working on
the same diagram, you can assign
password protection to protect
proprietary information.
Toolbox Functions
Toolboxes are libraries of
preconfigured functions that further
enhance VisSim’s modelling
capabilities. VisSim’s toolbox
libraries include functions for
controls, analogue and digital
filtering, signal generation and
electro-mechanical design.
Flexible Architecture
You can seamlessly tap into other
applications to beef up VisSim’s
computational power using these
features:
• MATLAB® interface
• Mathcad® 2000+ interface
• ActiveX link
• Dynamic Data Exchange
• Import and export data files
• 1-, 2- and 3D look-up tables
Extensible Design Platform
VisSim’s extensible design platform
lets you easily expand VisSim’s
design capabilities in these ways:
• Create custom blocks written in C,
C++, Fortran and Pascal using a DLL
wizard. Your block functions can be
automatically added to VisSim’s
drop-down Blocks
menu, making them immediately
available for use.
• Generate C code from your models
with VisSim/C-Code. Because the C
code is optimised for speed, the
resulting executables and DLLs will
run up to 5 times faster than their
block diagram counterparts.
• Translate and incorporate SimulinkTM
models into a VisSim model.
Drill down into your simulation to reveal deeper levels of local complexity.
