Runs programs and simulates their behavior using only the software platform without the need for a controller. Programs can be tested for S7-300 and S7-400 devices.
SIMATIC S7-PLCSIM simulates a controller for functional testing of user blocks and programs for S7-300 and S7-400 on the programming device/PC. Online access and test functions of the programming tools can be carried out in exactly the same manner as with a real controller. This allows the entire program test to be carried out on-site in the development office. The facilty to simulate the communication via MPI, PROFIBUS DP and TCP/IP is new and ensures a high degree of flexibility in the simulation.
PLCSIM is capable of working with multi-instances. It is now possible to start several PLCSIM and test several controllers simultaneously.
