Measuring single phase ac voltage in cosim

Hi... I am simulating a single phase H bridge inverter. When i get the ouput to be seen in labview from multisim through the HSBC connector, I am not getting the exact one that is obtained in oscilloscope.. I have attached the files.. Any help is appreciated..

Can you tell us more about what you seeing and what you expect?  I see signals that are toggling with 50% duty cycle at 50 Hz between a positive and negative voltage.

Hi... I am getting a two level inveter output in multisim scope. But when the same implemented in cosim, I am only getting the positive voltage and not the negative voltage at the output...

I'm seeing a negative.  Is yours going to ground, or just near ground.

This is the correct output in multism with both positive and negative voltages..

But see below in labview,  only positive output..

Well your currents are going negative which means that the voltage should go negative.  What if you put a connector on the negative side of the variable resistor and look at the difference?

Still the same thing. I am only getting the positive voltage.

The schematic you uploaded had a static resistor.  Any chance you could move back to that to tell the difference?

I tried... But that doesnt work... I suspect this is a bug to be fixed!
