Particular attention in Industry 4.0 is given to the virtualization of plants. Siemens, through SIMATIC S7-PLCSIM Advanced allows the complete simulation of the functionality of a plant under development without the need for physical connections with the SIMATIC S7-1500 PLCs. Early detection of faults is possible through realistic commissioning procedures. In addition, it can be used for staff training.
The course will provide you with an overview of the possibilities of using the SIMATIC S7-PLCSIM Advanced simulator.
At the end you will be able to carry out a virtual commissioning, starting from the basic configuration up to the simulation of communication with external systems.
