Thanks a lot! :)
It works, who would have thought that's the meaning of controlled voltage source here.

> hello monica, power system elements have connectors which are small square dots and signal builder output is a port signal represented by '>'. u cannot directly connect them. suppose u want to connect a resistive load to signal generated from signal builder then try this way. convert the signal from signal builder to a voltage or current signal using controlled current source/ controlled voltage source blocks and then connect the resistive load to the v/i block connectors... it works!!

I know how to work with the elements, sources and measurement instruments from SimPowerSystems. The question was if I can mix elements from SimPowerSystems with other sources/elements that are not from SimPowerSystems.
