CoSimulation Plugin for LabVIEW 2015

I just installed LabVIEW 2015 and MultiSIM 14 from the web based installer, but it seems that the CoSimulation plugin needed for LV2015 isn't available for installation.Does this plugin exist yet?

If so, where can I get it?

If not, when is it scheduled for release?

Yes, co-simulation is available and supported for LabVIEW 2015 and Multisim 14. Be sure to install the LabVIEW Control Design and Simulation Module 2015 for LabVIEW 2015. When you install Multisim 14, be sure to install the co-simulation plug-in for LabVIEW 2014. Then copy the folders and files to the equivalent LabVIEW 2015 directory locations as explained below.

The trick is that, after installing the co-simulation plug in, you need to copy the folders and files below from the LabVIEW 2014 directory to the equivalent LabVIEW 2015 directory:

    C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2014\vi.lib\Simulation\EMI\Plugins\Multisim Design

   

    C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2014\help\msmcosim.chm

   

    C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2014\help\msmcosim.txt

See this announcement for links to download all of the NI development tools: 'What tools do I need to get started developing a power converter product?'

IMPORTANT NOTE:

  • You must keep your Multisim files and LabVIEW co-simulation VI files in the same directory path. For co-simulation with Multisim 14, the Multisim circuit design files must be located in the same directory path as the LabVIEW co-simulation VI. Otherwise a crash will occur if the Multisim file path is changed. This is a known issue that will be fixed in the future. In the mean time, the workaround is straightforward: You must keep your Multisim files and LabVIEW co-simulation VI files in the same directory path.
