The VisSim/PowerPack

New collection of function blocks and utilities for VisSim, VisSim/Comm and VisSim/ECD

A new add-on for the VisSim dynamic simulation software system has been developed in a joint project between Adept Scientific (Letchworth, Herts) and Visual Solutions (Groton, Massachusetts). The VisSim/PowerPack adds significant functionality to Visual Solutions' core VisSim product, much of it in response to the wish-lists of VisSim users.

The VisSim/PowerPack is a collection of ready-made function blocks and utilities designed for users of VisSim, VisSim/Comm and VisSim/ECD. With it, you can calculate the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a square matrix, solve real and imaginary roots of polynomials, fit polynomials to data, perform principal component analysis, smooth input signals, solve systems of linear equations, sort vector input data and fit linear, cubic and parabolic splines to data.

It also allows you to read and write data via your computer's serial port (ideal for communicating directly with instruments); and to synchronise simulations on different computers.

The VisSim/PowerPack is available now from Adept Scientific at www.adeptscience.com.

VisSim is a Windows-based program for the modelling and simulation of complex nonlinear dynamic systems, combining an intuitive drag-and-drop block diagram interface with a powerful simulation engine.

The VisSim product range is supplied and supported by Adept Scientific in the UK, Ireland, Germany, Austria and Scandinavia.
