VisSim/OptimizePRO calculates the optimal values for design variables subject to user-defined constraints starting from initial user guess values. For example, VisSim/OptimizePRO can automatically calculate optimal PID controller gains that give minimal time to setpoint, plus minimal overshoot. VisSim/OptimizePRO allows user-specified cost functions that can consider controller behavior, such as steady-state error, overshoot, and rise and settling times. VisSim/OptimizePro also works with a physical system when used with VisSim/Real-TimePRO and VisSim/Embedded Controls Developer.
