Not sure what I am doing wrong... perhaps you can help? Full Siemens TIA Portal PLC Programming Course available here: petevree.thinkific.com/course...
I had this problem too and acoording to comments when I did it worked my case too. You should change select version higher 4.0 . Consequently your program required 4.0 later to work well. Have a nice work.
Firstly, My os is Wİndows 8.1. I have Tia Portal V14 SP1 version and using PLC Sim's virtual plc. And I don't prefer executing PLCSim program by directly clicking shortcut, instead, just click the "start simulation" symbol on the Tia Portal. I had some issues regarding to PLCSim. After some steps I solved the issue that about plcsim configuring and downloading. The error wasn't exact same error (aborted error) but it was some other error like synchronization and configuration problems. 1. I introduced Tia Portal and PLCSim exe files to my virus programme as secure application (if you use windows security wall you can do the same thing also). 2. Using Tia Portal shortcut file, I reached target directory. On there, after Shift+Right Click combination, clicked "open command window here" tab. Copied the exe file name (Siemens.Automation.Portal) paste it on window and run it. That's all . After it open, you can close the command window and start using Tia Portal. Not sure that which step is the effective one . I hope it would be helpful to someone.
I had this problem. I found the solution in the Siemens forum. "The most likely cause of this error is an incorrect firmware version. PLCSIM supports simulation of the S7-1200 firmware version V4.0 and later. If the CPU in your project is an older firmware version, then attempting to download this to PLCSIM will result in the described error. " I changed the firmware version and it works!
Hello pete i experienced that alot in my tia portal v13 if tia portal v13 sp1. i only installed what is in the package of sp1. if i download something that is not part in sp1. my plcsim always in error. i think whats in the package of version u stick to that.
had the same problem with 1214 tried everything from check the box for simulation , to update the plc sim (this last one cause the plc sim to dont open anymore) , and the problem was the plcsim ver, suggest to download the plc sim current ver from the page of siemens
I read that TIA portal wont work on windows 10 with PLC Sim unless its updated to SP1. I have the same problem, except I cant even open the "Extended Download to Device" window, it skips straight to Load, which proceeds to give me those same errors. Trying the SP1 and seeing if that fixes it.
To run the simulation, you have to go to the menu and click on start simulation. Your problem is not the simulation, is the Device. I have the same problem with my device which is not accepting the IP address change.
For everybody which have this problem: The problem is because of an incompatibilty between the simulator and the choosen PLC. Try to choose a PLC 1500 1511-1 PN and choose also in the Simulator a PLC 1500.
an interface is not available for an online connection to the configured access node......sir would please help me to solve this prblm even i have set the pc/pg interface though it is not working
Sir, i update PLCSIM V14 SP1. But now,when i m trying to simulator it says 'You can simulate cpu of s7 1200 series with firmware version 4.0 or higher ". How can i solve this?
It happened with me and i lost some few hours to understand. So the solution is simple you must use the last version of de firmware. Try use S7 1200 CPU1214 DC/DC/DC V4.4
Hello Sir, To my knoweldge PLCSIM V14 works with only those CPU that have a firmware version of 4.0 or greater. You can try with any with firmware of >= 4.0. Hope this will solve the problem. But I'm stuck with PLCSIM V13. Can you help me on that. How to simulate in V13 of PLCSIM.
hello, I have one question When I run the simulation, I click load after the search is finished. I am getting "the selected online target could not be reached" error.Please, ı have project can u help me ?? But ı have uninterrupted internet and I am wired not wifi
I got it working by updating the software, but if you are using a crack version... not sure what happens when you attempt to update. Here is the next video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0hv6Fn31Zks.html
i am having the same issue, but when Start the PLCSIM software, i compile adn the run the simulator through the ICON given in TIA Portal, and then it goes online and everything works fine. I dunno the science behind it tho. Well guess this Comment is lil too late for ya.
@@PeteVree hi i have TIA v14 and windows10. I have the same problem. i trying to update the software there is an error of (unable to connect to the server)?
In the top menu click online and then simulate -> start. I had the same issue two weeks ago, make sure the plc sim and step 7 is up to date, once I installed all the updates it worked.
Solved the problem : support.industry.siemens.com/tf//ww/en/posts/error-downloading-to-plcsim-v13/178147/?page=0&pageSize=10, by a re-compile. Right Click on CPU_name, go to "Compile", Hardware (Rebuild All) and then Software (Rebuild All). And problem gets resolved.
siemens=10 days to connect pc with plc////////////OMRON =first hour connect PC-PLC, run ladder control PLC-Inverter,they dont charger for upgrade and easy and stronger then siemens.....i spent money with siemens and its not worthy it.....
it all depends on where you live and market share. Allen Bradley owns most of the market in North America, Siemens owns Europe, Omron & Mitsubishi are prevalent in Asia. If a $1200 trainer gets you a $70K job... it's worth it.
