ExtendSim User Guide and Developer Reference
All ExtendSim products contain electronic files of the manuals in the ExtendSim8 Documentation folder or can be downloaded here. Printed manuals ship with boxed, full versions of ExtendSim.
The ExtendSim User Guide explains and provides examples
of different simulation approaches. This manual has step-by-step
tutorials and models that show you how to build, run,
and analyze ExtendSim models. The Developer Reference reveals the ExtendSim integrated
development environment (IDE) so that you can create,
modify, and debug ExtendSim blocks. The ExtendSim Addendum details features and functionality added in ExtendSim 8. Information in the Addendum has been folded into the electronic version of the User Guide.
