<div class="markdown_content"><p>With CoDeSys you have a PLC soft too, CoDeSys SP PLCWinNT, you can use it without licence during 2 hours. After 2 hours you only to re start again ! </p> <p>This PLC is fully usefull; For example I use it to simulate a process, and J use network variables with Ethernet to link this softPLC and a real PLC from Moeller.</p> <p>Best regards</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>I do it the same way, however, not in CoDeSys simulation. Beckhoff TwinCAT works better.</p> <p>You can download a royalty free trial version from the Beckhoff website (works for 30 days, then you will have to reinstall it for the next 30 days). It comes with a Win based soft PLC, which you can use even at the development PC. </p> <p>Opposite to CoDeSys simulation, timings and task management are working in hard realtime.</p> <p>TwinCAT is suitable for large projects as well.</p> <p>Have success</p> <p>Rolf</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>I generally use the online simulation to simulate a project.</p> <p>I add a POU to simulate my process I/O and how it reacts and then add it as a task or just call it from the main program.</p> <p>Generally there are a bunch of time delays so when output X goes on, you wait a little and turn input Y on. For instance to simulate a limit switch that senses when a cylinder has extended. </p> <p>I haven't done any really large systems this way but it works great for small system.</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>Is it possible to connect 3rd party application with CoDeSys Simulation? Same like SIEMENS does with S7PLCSIM?</p> <p>If i want to simulate my application with S7 PLC Simulation, it is possible with Siemens STEP7 software using S7PLCSim.</p> <p>Is there any similar module available in CoDeSys? or any plan to support in near future? </p></div>
