Can I simulate my project to test functionality before I buy?
Yes. The EBPro software includes simulation modes that you can use to test every aspect of your project before buying anything. There are two types of simulation modes available in EBPro: online and offline.
Online simulation will run your HMI project on a PC as if it were an HMI. This enables you to test device communication and preview program behavior without an HMI present. For cMT Series models, online simulation can be used for up to an hour at a time, while HMI Series models are limited to 10 minutes of online simulation. You must connect your external devices to the PC for online simulation; otherwise a connection error will display.
Offline simulation will allow you to preview everything except for the external device communication. This can be helpful when adjusting the logic, layout, and window behavior for your HMI project. This can be run on the PC at any time and does not require your other devices to be connected.
