How can I find 4 channel oscilloscope in multisim 11

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around the availability and options for using a 4 channel oscilloscope in Multisim 11.0, including the limitations of different software suites and potential alternatives.

Discussion Character

  • Technical explanation, Debate/contested, Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant inquires about finding or adding a 4 channel oscilloscope in Multisim 11.0.
  • Another participant notes that the availability of a 4 channel oscilloscope depends on the installed suite, stating that only the 'pro power' suite supports it, while the 'base' or 'full' suites are limited to a 2 channel oscilloscope.
  • A suggestion is made to use PSpice as an alternative for displaying multiple waveforms if immediate results are needed.
  • It is mentioned that there is no formal way to access a 4 channel oscilloscope in Multisim other than through the 'pro power' suite, and an alternative software, LTSpice IV, is recommended for its capability to display multiple waveforms for free.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree that a 4 channel oscilloscope is not available in the standard versions of Multisim and that the 'pro power' suite is required. However, there are differing opinions on the best alternative software to use.

Contextual Notes

Limitations include the dependency on the specific suite installed and the lack of formal options for accessing a 4 channel oscilloscope in the standard versions of Multisim.

Hi, how can I find 4 channel oscilloscope in multisim 11.0? or how can I add 4 channel oscilloscope to multisim?

It depends on which suite you have installed. If you have the 'base' or 'full' suite, then your are limited to a 2 channel oscilloscope. For a 4 channel oscilloscope, you must have the 'pro power' suite. Check the following link from National Instruments to compare between the different Multisim suites:

I would recommend using PSpice if you are in real hurry. You can display as many waveforms as you like in simulation.
 
Is there any options to have 4 channel oscilloscope?
 
No, there's no a formal way to have a 4 channel oscilloscope other than in the 'pro power' suite. If you can substitute Multisim, then use LTSpice IV. It's free and capable of displaying as many waveforms as you like. Get it from the link:

thanks for replies :)
