(note: there is many differences between 300 / 1200, however this workaround could be used to simule some algorithms).

Once if the simulation provision for S7-1200 is available, then it'll become more attractive

korayatlay Posts: 5 Rating: (0)	Hi, I started using s7 1200 few days ago, and just read your post. Just to be clear, I can simulate the created program in step7 only when connected to PLC, but does that mean that also I need the actual sensors connected to the PLC? Thanks

	I hope that the answer will help, if you have still questions, don't hesitate to ask me. All the best, Late Never say never, think in solutions, not in trouble......

tefdel Posts: 2 Rating: (3)	Thats not an excuse; who cares about their priorities. How they can release a development tool (TIA basic) without the oppurtinity to test the functions and function blocks? How they can work on the further version, if even the former version is incomplete? So every software developer should put on this table a 1200er, to test/evaluate their standard functions... So typically siemens...

Mathieugros Posts: 3 Rating: (0)	That's it ... We will pay even an update to V12 ... For a simulator ... while Siemens announced the TIA portal as a revolution ... ^ ^

OnoMas Posts: 43 Rating: (0)	I've spent US$XXX for this CPU+KTP400... there is no other way to get easy for the simulation.. must buy it...

Hello OnoMas, As of now, YES a real CPU is the best way of realizing the programs. You can make reuse most of the S7-1200 code as a code in a S7-300/S7-400 system. I would say, we can comfortably simulate the 70% of S7-1200 code by this technique. (optimized data block doesn't work with S7-300/S7-400, DB must be created as S7-300/400 compatible blocks)
