Siemens TIA Portal V21 | How to Download Program in PLCSIM Advanced (Real Network Simulation)
In this video, you will learn how to download your PLC program from TIA Portal V21 into PLCSIM Advanced and simulate a real network environment for S7-1200 and S7-1500 CPUs.
PLCSIM Advanced is different from normal PLCSIM. It allows you to create a virtual PLC with a real IP address, making it possible to connect WinCC, SCADA, HMI, or third-party systems for realistic testing without physical hardware.
Step-by-step, you will see:
• Creating a project in TIA Portal V21
• Adding S7-1200 / S7-1500 CPU
• Creating a virtual PLC in PLCSIM Advanced
• Assigning IP address to virtual PLC
• Connecting TIA Portal with PLCSIM Advanced
• Downloading hardware and software into the virtual PLC
• Putting the virtual CPU into RUN mode
• Testing online monitoring and communication
This tutorial is very useful for automation engineers, SCADA engineers, and students who want to test complete systems in a virtual environment.
