Multisim : multiple plots & interactive simulation

[AKparts]

  Hi,

    I'm a beginner with Multisim. I have Version 6.12 Education Demo, which I got when I purchased the Sedra & Smith Microelectronics book.

I just started using it & have a question on a simple AC analysis.

Attached is a picture.

1) I have 3 seperate AC analysis plots - each one for a different value of a variable capacitor. They are located on seperate pages. Is there a way to combine the data from the 3 analysises into one plot ?

2) Ideally I would like to use the interactive simulation feature and vary the value of the variable capacitor (via keyboard) and observe the change in the graph. I'm not getting this to work... Are there certain settings that I need to enable ?

   Thanks !

Hi ak,

It is not possible to merge plots in the version of Multisim that you are running. This is a very old version. The current version is 11.0.2. It is possible to merge plots while you are in the Grapher View by selecting Graph -> Overlay Traces.

Hope this helps.

   Hi Tayyab,

     Thanks - I realize I have an old version. I did upgrade to the Multisim 2001 Textbook Edition, which has more features than the Student Edition.

I understand that Graph Overlays are not available in my version.

What about interactive simulation ?

In the previous attachment, you can see that I have the ability to adjust the variable capacitor value with my keyboard, but the Graph does not update - why ?
