I'm trying to connect on-line with Simotion Simulator, but Scout always said "device not reachable, verify online access on TIA...". The simulator CPU IP address is 196.254.11.22 (on x127 port). I checked the IP address on SIMOSIM net adapter, and I found it's 196.254.255.241 when is selected "obtain ip address automatically" (FIG.01). I tried to manually change IP address on SIMOSIM adapter to 196.254.11.230 and subnet mask to make the same, but the result is two IP address on TCP/IPv4 at the same time, and Scout can't connect yet (FIG.02). I tried also to change SIMOSIM IP address from TIA, but I can't because the "modify settings" button is not enable. If someone helps me to find the way to go on line with SIMOSIM, I would really appreciate. Sorry for my bad English. Thanks in advance. M Attachment IP_settings.png (318 Downloads)

You can start accessible nodes (set the Online Access Device to Simosim Adapter) is the SIMOSIM found? Regards Christoph

If I search for access node in TIA, I can find SIMOSIM adapter, and I can connect to it. I attach a screenshot of the connection in TIA to SIMOSIM. Thank you.

I was a little confused because I saw all connectione red/green, and in the "destination system output" appears red messages that said "impossible to connct to SINAMICS_Integrated....". What I'm finally trying to do, is to see the electronic cam "CAM_Pistoni_gradi" as showned in the attached screenshot, and I can see it only if I run the program, because it's calculated in the "FC_Phasing". But I just tried to compile and load the software, and Scout goes to error saying that "..the device must be not connected online in TIA portal". (If I try to connect Scout without the online connection in TIA, Scout can't connect). Sorry, maybe it's silly, but it's the first time I try to work with the simulator.

I saw 5.2.1 and my hands turned that into 5.1, and then my eyes saw 5.1 (because I typed it). You should be very close to having it all communicating and simulating. mbeghelli Hi Huggy, I don't know, but the entire project is made with the sw configuration that I described in the first post, and it's work fine.

A connection to Sinamics Integrated is not possible with SIMOSIM, only the SIMOTION PLC Part is simulated. You must first go online in tia , then the onlineaccess data are stored in the project and can be used from Scout tia. So you must go Online in tia, then offline, then online in Scout tia and download the project. Regards Christoph

I went online with TIA, then I went online with Scout, finally I went offline with TIA. Tried to upload sw to simulator and I finally did it. Thank you again. Regards M
