Siemens PLCSIM’s New Interface in TIA Portal V18

The latest iteration of Siemens' PLCSIM interface, housed within the TIA Portal v18, marks a substantial advancement in simulation capabilities. Building upon the foundation of the PLCSIM Advanced features, the new interface introduces an intuitive visual layout that simplifies user interactions. This enhanced interface empowers engineers and technicians with an accessible environment to create, configure, and simulate industrial processes. Through this interface, users can design complex simulations and test automation sequences with ease. In addition to its user-friendly nature, the interface now fully supports communication modes, enabling both internal and external communication setups, including TCP/IP over virtual Ethernet adapters.

Generating Analog Output Signal for Fail-Safe System in Siemens TIA Portal

The implementation uses a standard ET 200SP analog card. It is under the constant supervision of a fail-safe analog input card and is terminated by a fail-safe output card. The usual instances where this is applied include flow regulation valves, stepper motors, and speed of soft starters, all with fail-safe control. This example stands out due to its ability to integrate seamlessly into an already established system. The system includes a fail-safe S7 PLC and ET 200SP, operating within the Safety Advanced environment of Siemens TIA Portal.

An Introduction to the Function Block Diagram (FBD) Language in TIA Portal

The Function Block Diagram (FBD) language, part of Siemens' TIA Portal ecosystem, facilitates the creation of sophisticated control algorithms through graphical programming. With the FBD language, engineers can build control logic by selecting and connecting function blocks, creating a cohesive and efficient control sequence. In this tutorial, you will learn how to harness the power of FBD language in TIA Portal for creating diverse control logic scenarios. You will be guided through adding new blocks, connecting function blocks, and utilizing instructions from the FBD language library. The tutorial covers three practical programs: implementing Boolean algebra, modeling linear equations, and programming a motor control application.
