TS1110 | TwinCAT Simulation Manager

The simulation of machines or plants can lead to simplified commissioning and thus to drastic cost reductions.

The TwinCAT Simulation Manager is a simple tool for configuring a simulation environment that integrates itself in the TwinCAT system environment. It supports the creation of a virtual machine, which corresponds to a real one in its runtime performance. The task of the TwinCAT Simulation Manager is essentially to break and restore links, such as between a PLC variable and an IO point. In the case of simulation, the link is broken and reconnected to a simulation environment.
