Introduction
This document shows how simulate a HMI communication which uses S7-Communication (e.g.
WinCC, InTouch, Simatic.Net OPC-Server) to 3 Siemens PLCs (S7-300 / S7-400) with Plcsim and
Nettoplcsim.
The IP-Adresseses used in this example are showing the general principle how to setup such a
system.
S7 Station PLC#1
S7 Station PLC#2
192.168.1.120
S7 Station PLC#3
192.168.1.130
PLCSIM PLC#1
(IP 192.168.1.110)
LAN IP1
(192.168.1.110)
LAN IP2
(192.168.1.120) 192.168.1.10
PLCSIM PLC#3
(IP 192.168.1.130)
LAN-IP3
(192.168.1.130)
The HMI-Station wants to connect the 3 PLCs under the Network IP-Addresses 192.168.1.110 for
PLC#1, 192.168.1.120 for PLC#2 and 192.168.1.130 for PLC#3.
To get this running on a single PC with Nettoplcim, the network inferface needs three additional IP-
Addresses.
You should test if you can ping all three from your HMI-Station.
