Simulation and validation of the controller functionality of S7-1500/ET200SP including:

• Web server
• OPC UA
• Traces
• Motion
• Memory card simulation
• Process diagnostics
• S7 communication
• Know-how-protected blocks

Several instances and thus the interaction of multiple PLCs are supported. In addition, structures with distributed instances are also supported (e.g.: PLC 1 and PLC 2 run on PC 1; PLC 3 runs on PC 2 and the plant/machine simulation runs on PC 3). An extensive API is available for interfacing plant/machine simulations to S7-PLCSIM Advanced.
