<div class="markdown_content"><p>in v3.5 there is a pragma </p> <div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span><span class="err">{IF defined (IsSimulationMode)}</span> <span class="err"> // simulation code</span> <span class="err">{ELSE}</span> <span class="err"> // normal code</span> <span class="err">{END_IF}</span> </pre></div> <p>I am not sure if that existed already in V2.3, try it</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>Hi all, is it possible to detect that the program runs in the simulation mode in CoDeSys 2.3 rather than on the PLC?</p> <p><strong>Why I need this?</strong><br/> I own WAGO PLC 750-880 and I am using the SysRtcGetTime() function to read the PLC clock. As you know it doesn't work in the simulation mode, therefore I am using RTC() function block to <em>simulate</em> the clock by providing a certain date.</p> <p>Any ideas are welcome!</p></div>
