Stuck on TIA Portal V16 download to PLCSIM for NetToPLCSim connection
Hi everyone!!!
I'm a student working on my final year project (monitoring a transformer's temperature and pressure). I am trying to connect TIA Portal V16 to a Python script via NetToPLCSim.
Now, I am stuck at the "Extended download to device" and when I click "Start search" , TIA Portal cannot find my virtual PLC in the table the "Load" button remains grayed out. My PG/PC interface is currently set to my physical network card (Realtek). Should I switch it to "PLCSIM" or "Siemens PLC Sim Virtual Ethernet Adapter" to make it work?
or could this be a compatibility issue between NetToPLCSim and TIA Portal V16? Or maybe I misconfigured something in NetToPLCSim itself before attempting the download?
Any advice on how to get TIA Portal to detect the simulation so I can finish setting up NetToPLCSim would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help!!!
