SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on the design and simulation of an astable multivibrator using NI Multisim and its construction on an ELVIS board. Participants confirm that if the simulation results align with theoretical expectations, the connections are likely correct. Key aspects include verifying voltage levels and frequency calculations, as well as monitoring the waveform across the timing capacitor to ensure proper functionality.

Hi Miss P. If the results agree with theory, then you can be confident of your connections. 
The voltage levels seem as expected. What about the frequency? Does it agree with your calculations?
Monitoring the waveform across the timing capacitor will supply confirmation of its correct working, if you know what to expect.
