8.1 Simulator
8-2
• The V8 series is able to communicate with a maximum of 8 kinds of external devices, such as
PLCs (8-way communication).
Simulator can also be run for a maximum of 8 kinds of devices.
For example, Simulator may be run only for two of the eight kinds of devices, and the remaining
devices may be actually connected to MONITOUCH for operation check.
• As Simulator works on the V-SFT editor (configuration software for the V series), the operation can
be checked easily during screen editing.
The operations of the parts placed on the screen can be checked between just the computer and
the V series. Since screen creation and debugging are performed on one computer, the time for
screen creation will decrease.
• Based on the memory assigned to the screen data for the V series, simulation sheets are
automatically created on a screen-by-screen basis.
