Hi! Could you help me with my problem? I’m using TIA Portal V18 and S7-PLCSIM v18 for simulation. I can start the simulation relatively well. The problem is that when I make changes to the program, the simulation software freezes. Here’s how I make changes: I stop the PLC in the simulation software, then I make changes in the program, for example by adding a button. Then, when I try to load the new program into the PLC, the simulation software freezes. What am I doing wrong? In what order should I proceed to make it work? I’m going crazy with Siemens!
Hi, This freez problem I hade also somehow. I think it's a bug of software (Not sure) Have you installed the SP of PLC Sim. Probably your problem is solved with the SP because PLC Sim is totally new software and it takes time to solve all the problems.
from 1 to 0 ??? has the input a start value of 0? if yes then somewhere it's overwritten to 1. Do you see the CPU in run mode? It's really not easy to troubleshoot a plc problem just with coments.
@@maherdaibes9344 With Force Table you can do it but as its name indicates the input will be forced and that's not a solution that you need. I checked it with a CPU 1516-3 PN/DP V3.0 and TIA Portal V18. I could change any input (Peripheral --> P and Q, Memory--> M and from a DB) all of them I could change 0 to 1 and again 1 to 0. Write which cpu are you using. for example some versions does not support Plc Sim advanced. Try to make a new project with the CPU that I've used. Probably your input is overwritten somewhere in your code.
In PLCSIM V18 do you mean? Yes you can't find it because if you want to simulate 300 or 400 series old version of PLC SIM will open. I think V5.4 V18 is just for 1200, 1500 and ET200 CPUs. V5.x supports 300 and 400 series.
@@industrial_automation nah doesn't work for me i don't what s the probleme they show me a message that (((some information may have been lost. This should not have happened........)) and the Tia portal restarted
@@industrial_automation also when i want to charge the program i can't because there is no advice to connect with i don't know how to use the virtual one
@@oumaimasahir753 Which version are you using? if 18, have you completely uninstall previous version befor installing this version? Have you updated some part of TIA? Maybe some incompatible versions of other parts you have installed. It can have many reasons.
where do ypu mean exactlly? After that you click start simulation? If yes, does the simulation start? Do you create a workspace and turn on the virtual plc?
@ sprry it was my mistake. I installed the PlCSIm and it asks for a computer Restart i did it later and I counldnt access offline simulation it’s working now

hi
thanks a lot really good and simple but when working with plcsim v5 how do i make main block go
online ?
it doesn't show in the video
Hi,
just like other simulation click "go online" in Tia or click on glass icon. It is like other simulations so I didn't do that again.
@@industrial_automation i did that it went online but i cant change the inputs from 1 to 0

@@industrial_automation from what people told me i can only change the bit from 1 to 0 is by using the force table is this right?

I DON'T GET AN CONNECT OPTION? WHY??
