Graphically connect the components FluidSIM® IN and FluidSIM® OUT to the corresponding EasyPort ports. Start FluidSIM®, open the desired circuit and activate OPC® communication in FluidSIM®. EzOPC automatically detects EasyPorts which are connected to the PC. Wire the PLC with EasyPort and connect the EasyPort to the PC. Controlling simulated circuits in FluidSIM® (version 3.6 and higher) via an external PLC.EzOPC provides a handy configuration dialog for this purpose. It ensures efficient data flow between Windows applications and automation equipment.įollowing installation, configure the communication parameters and the components present in your system. OPC® stands for "Open Connectivity via Open Standards" and is an established standard interface in automation. The intermediate layer of the CoDeSys OPC-Server is obsolete as of EzOPC 5.5.

The communication between EzOPC and the CoDeSys Soft-PLC PLCWinNT is significant simplified. Those signals can also be connected to a real process or PLC via EasyPort-Modules. In addition to the digital signals analogue values can be shared between FluidSIM®/ CIROS® and the PLC-simulations PLCSIM/ PLCWinNT.

In addition to the simulation S7-PLCSIM V5.1 or higher, the S7-PLCSIM Advanced now is also supported In addition to simulation in Codesys V2.3, Codesys V3.5 SP8 or higher is now supported. To do this, start the program with the parameter /S.Īn error in the handling of analog values has been fixed. The setup program can now be executed without prompting (silent). The data can be written or read by any OPC® 2.x compliant OPC client.
