Launching PLCSIM Advanced and creating a PLC instance

Double click on the PLCSIM Advanced icon on the desktop or search for PLCSIM Advanced in the search bar and click Enter.

PLCSIM Advanced does not launch a window (in older PLCSIM Advanced versions). When it runs, it shows up on the tray icon. A right click on the tray icon will show the control panel.

plcsimAd_r

A PLC with the correct program already uploaded will be suggested by PLCSIM Advanced. Click on that PLC’s name to start an instance of it.

plcsimAd_1_r

In the next section, the OPC client will be established. Through the OPC client, you should be able to set PLC variables at runtime, for example; start the simulation.
