In this is article, we will show you how to connect Schneider Electric Control Expert to a PLC simulator. We will show you how to launch a simulator on the Schneider-Electric Unity Pro (EcoStruxure Control Expert).

Schneider Electric PLC simulator allows PLC programmers to test and experiment their logic without needing to have a physical PLC, and therefore it is the utmost inportance for anyone programming in Schneider Electric PLC to have this know how. Almost everything can be tested using the Schneider Electric PLC simulator. I have also included Schneider Electric PLC simulator user manual / guide (EcoStruxure Control Expert – PLC Simulator, reference EIO0000001714), and the link to that document has been provided below (in the reference section).

You can launch the Schneider Electric PLC simulator by clicking on the windows icon (bottom left-hand side of the window) and launching the PLC simulator (as shown in the image below).
