Automation Studio - Co-Simulation
Back to Automation Studio Educational Edition page
Co-simulate multi-technology systems modeled in Automation Studio™ with third-party software, control devices and PLCs
Co-simulation by OPC Client
Automation Studio™ can communicate via OPC Client (Data Access/Unified Architecture) allowing users to:
- Simulate Automation Studio™ Ladder and SFC programs with real sensors and actuators
- Test PLC programs with virtual systems developed in Automation Studio™
- Monitor PLC programs and their input/output values directly from Automation Studio™
Co-simulation by CAN bus J1939
Automation Studio™ can communicate with any CAN bus J1939 device allowing users to:
- Create a cost effective operator training environment
- Test a controller’s algorithm with a complete virtual machine
- Reduce maintenance cost by performing quicker diagnostics and troubleshooting
Co-simulation by API
Automation Studio™ can communicate via APIs with third-party simulation software allowing users to:
- Create a model-in-the-loop (MIL) testing environment
- Simulate Automation Studio™ projects with other complementary multi-physics simulation software
Co-simulation by OPC Server
Automation Studio™ can communicate via OPC Server UA (Unified Architecture) allowing users to:
- Analyze input/output collected from SCADA/HMI software directly from Automation Studio™
- Test your SCADA/HMI software applications with virtual systems simulated in Automation Studio™
