Verifying Multisim and Ultiboard

Explore sample projects and check how schematics and PCB windows are working concurrently. For instance open a new folder in your C drive "C:\EMC\LAB1\Getting_Started" and unzip this file Getting_Started.zip. Open the project file that contains both the schematic and the PCB. Keep both windows synchronised using net file transfers.
