Hi fabioga66,
An example and a step by step instructions you can find in the application example PCS 7 Unit Template "Stirred Tank Reactor" using the example of the Chemical Industry. With regards |

New question published by fabioga66 is split to a separate thread with the subject Is it possible to start 2 plcsim and simulate 2 AS at the same time?. Best regards |

Hi the OS simulation has the purpose of testing things in runtime before maybe downloading to the real OS. Yes, it's a 'one way'. If you find things not ok, you have to go back to the (main-) OS project, make your corrections (or do it the way you are actually doing) and maybe test again with OS simulation. See, this OS simulation is not only creating a copy, it is also disabling some things which could have negative influence on the running plant. In e.g. if you are simulating a OS server project, in the simulated copy Siemens makes sure that the the real clients won't connect to that simulated OS. Also the running OS servers should not get 'confused' by another OS having the same name, therefore redundancy will be sisabled. So the OS simulation is for testing in a real plant. Due to the above mentioned reasons per default it is disabled in a OS project on the ES to put a project in runtime. You could enable to go to runtime with your OS project on the ES and hence no need to use OS simulation and hence no copy. If you have understood the above topic you know that you won't put the OS server project directly in runtime while the computer on which you are doing that has connection to the OSes (client and server) of real plant. You will find that setting when WinCC Explorer is opened if you open the properties of OS project (top entry on the left pane) and go to tab 'Options'. The name is 'Allow activation on ES'. Before you are downloading this project ever to the real OS you should perform the steps mentioned in this FAQ Best regards... |
