Starting COMSOL® with Simulink®
In order to use LiveLink™ for Simulink® the MATLAB® environment has to be set up in a way that LiveLink for Simulink can find its required files when running. This requirement means that MATLAB has to be started using one of the methods mentioned in the following subsections.
Manual setup of the connection between Simulink and COMSOL is not supported.
Starting on Windows®
On Windows® use the COMSOL Multiphysics 6.4 with Simulink shortcut icon that is created on the desktop during the product installation. A link is also available in the Windows start menu under COMSOL Multiphysics 6.4 > COMSOL Multiphysics 6.4 with Simulink.
This opens the MATLAB desktop together with the COMSOL Multiphysics server, which is represented by the command window appearing in the background. Note that the Simulink window does not open automatically. You have to click the Simulink button in the MATLAB toolbar to open the Simulink window.
Starting on macOS
On macOS, use the COMSOL Multiphysics 6.4 with Simulink application available in the Application folder: Applications > COMSOL 6.4 > Multiphysics.
Alternatively, use the command mentioned in the section Starting on Linux®.
Starting on Linux®
On Linux®, enter the command comsol mphserver simulink at a terminal.
