The READ_VAR between two Simulator Control Expert V14.1

[ahcoelho]

I’m attempt to establish a communication between two simulator M580 CPUs, using a READ_VAR, I have two vitalization Windows 10 in VMWare and each one with Control Expert V14.1 Installed, that I can ping each other, I create a new program with CPU M580, crate a section with READ_VAR, put the configuration of block, especially the address using the block ADDMX, I’ve trayed a lot of strings in input ADDMX, however the in/out GEST in READ_VAR block return value #16003 (Incorrect address format) doesn’t matter what I into in ADDMS’s input. I’m think that Control Expert 14.1 don’t work with communication between two Simulators, but I couldn’t find this information anywhere. Someone already has this issue? Someone two help me?

I'm not sure about the errors, but direct communication between simulators is not possible. This is probably to prevent using simulators as production controllers.

Thanks, I have found the answer, the communication between PLCs Simulators on Control Expert just work in Libset 15.0 or later, this information is just on help of V15.0 and later.
