I use TIA Portal 14 SP1 on host machine and PLCSim Advanced 2.0 which installed on guest machine (VMWare). Both machines are Win 7 x64. All the connections are ok. I even download hardware configuration to PLC instance in virtual machine. But when I try to download software, the TIA Portal tells me "Block 'Siwarex WP321DR [FB321]' cannot be simulated. Select the option "Support simulation during block compilation" in the project properties and recompile the block". Of course, I put the tick in necessary box. But it has no effect. Error comes again and again. Can someone help me, please?

If not, download the current FB321 from the internet, please: https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/94109373 Best regards Siwarexi
