Co-simulation Multisim/LabView

[Jessica0115]

I have been using Multisim for months and I have found the platform to simulate electronic circuits very good. But I saw the cosimulation tool on the internet and I downloaded LabView 2018 and then 2019, just like the design and simulation control module, recently, however the option for multisim in LabView does not appear to me, the option to control design and simulation if not only the control and simulation, but within this design appears to me and there it shows me the option of external but it does not show me the option of multisim, I do not know why this happened, if it is from oronto for having installed Multisim first or for what reason.

Hello,
Does anyone know if LabVIEW-Multisim Co-simulation Plug-in works in LabVew 2019, I have 32-bits LV2019 but the option doesn't appear to me.
Thank you.

Hello, I found something that worked for me, but I'm not totally sure that it works for you, you can try to unzip this folder at the following address (where you have LabVIEW installed)::

D:\System\NI\LabVIEW 2019\vi.lib\Simulation\EMI\Plugins

Thaaaank you so much Rick!

You are a life saver!

Hi, could someone be so kind as to explain or attach an image of how does the Multisim API toolkit work? I have looked for examples but I can't find them. I only know that you have to put Probes in Multisim but I don't know how to get the data in LAbView.

Thanks in advance.

You're welcome Azergui, I'm glad it worked for you.

Find examples of LabVIEW Multisim API Toolkit by first opening Multisim then clicking on the blue icon folder located on the toolbar.

This will take you to their built-in samples, click on the desired folder:

C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\Circuit Design Suite 14.2\samples\LabVIEW Multisim API Toolkit

In LabVIEW open the related vi

C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\Circuit Design Suite 14.2\samples\LabVIEW Multisim API Toolkit\Getting Started with the API

For example "Getting Started with the API" as selected above.

See snippet, .ms, and vi files attached. If this helps please leave a  ⭐ Kudos

**In short to get the data from Multisim, create a new virtual instrument (vi) in LabVIEW and run it using some output block i.e "Chart Waveform, string indicator, etc."
