SIEMENS: Analog Input/Output

Hi everyone , actually i was practing with the Timer Tank Scene with Step 7 V5.6 and PLCSIM but i can’t manage the time (analog output).

Do you have some advice?

In advance, thanks for your support.

Hello @rafloresroca, welcome to the forum!

I’ve tried to control the Timer Tank scene with PLCSIM and the timer worked fine, and the value of the elapsed time showed in the display too.
Have you added an analog output in Factory I/O? After selecting the PLCSIM Driver you go to File > Drivers > Configuration and, in the DWORD Outputs count you change from 0 to 1.


Then, you return to the Drivers page and there should be a node for an analog output where you can connect the Timer tag.

I hope this helps.
