3.6.1 Launch Simulator...
This feature is used to test a project’s functionality in a simulation environment without any communication to a physical device, such as Xpanels or PLCs.
Running Simulator
To execute the CIMON Canvas simulator, click Tools > Launch Simulator…. The simulator will run the starting page chosen for the project.
The simulation environment does not allow communication-related features to be checked. Users cannot retrieve real data since real tags are converted into virtual ones.
Simulator Screen
In the simulator runtime, the main page is loaded in which the user is able to interact with their project via their mouse and keyboard.
