Fatek Ethernet (Simultus-> Simulation - client) + (external device, simulator - server)


A full description of Simultus configuration to work with the FATEK PLC controller can be found in the 'QUICK START' chapter.

step D-1:
Connection with the FATEK PLC configuration:

add the FATEK PLC controller to the project tree



edit the FATEK PLC properties by entering the IP address and port as below:



step D-2:
insert on the diagram and configure the function blocks that allow data exchange with the FATEK PLC



NOTE: Each version of the program has different limitations related to the number of PLC I / O that can be connected to the simulation. While creating the program, the number of inputs, outputs and registers is not counted. A relevant message will appear only after you try to run the simulation or compilation of the program.

configure its properties



in the example above:
- A block has been selected to activate the state of the physical inputs X in the PLC
- Address = 0 - starting address of input X = 0 (i.e. physical input X0)
- Size = 4 - 4 consecutive input states will be sent to the PLC (X0, X1, X2 and X3)
- Device = 1 - device No. 1 is selected (from the tree)

step D-3:
In WinProLadder, create a driver program using ladder language

step D-4:
start the simulation of the PLC controller:



step D-5:
put the controller into RUN mode



Setup Simulation should be configured as below:
