Ok, sometimes it's very usefull but inyour case a PLCSIM is not really required. Specially for a beginner it is also very important to get fimilar with the hardware as well. Welcome to SIMATIC ! Best Regards.

What are the essential differences between STEP 7 Lite and STEP 7 / STEP 7 Professional? To order PLCSIM, here's the MLFB and technical data ofit: S7 PLCSIM Hope it helps.
