Garry (Customer) asked a question.
I've downloaded the latest edition of the software but cannot find this.
Version 3.7.1.6
Release Date: 8/12/20
Page 11 of the above link talks about the simulator.
"Why wait, when you can simulate?! There is no better way to get a head start on project development than building code ahead of time with the assistance of a project simulator. Now you can start your logic early and verify it’s operation even before the hardware has arrived! Simply select the “Simulator” option in the toolbar, transfer your code as you would with a real CPU, turn on monitoring and/or open a Data View window, and start testing your code. This tool will come in handy not only with new builds but also when maintaining existing systems. With the Productivity Suite simulator you can verify the effects of code changes before implementation, replicate fault conditions to test code stability, or try out new programming techniques/methods for greater efficiency. This can jump-start your project development on the front end and reduce unexpected errors with systems that are already live."
This would be a welcome feature if true.
Can anyone confirm?
Thank you,
Garry
Hi Gary,
Looks like our awesome marketing team got a little ahead of us, huh? That's okay, they are just as excited as the Productivity Development Team about a feature our customers have been wanting for years. The Simulator is not in 3.7 but it's coming soon, real soon, in 3.8. Be on the lookout for an announcement.
