Hai guys, i tried to simulate my Siemens program using factory io, and it went well, it can connect but when i tried to run the simulation in factory io, it doesnot do anything, when i pushed start button it doesnot start, is there any body who knows about this problem? ![IMG-20240122-WA0000~2](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/factoryio/original/1X/0d14a75f68d78b0b84a2d65f2972f6cfcd17c48e.jpeg) ---

Well, can you show us how your program looks like? Do the signals from the buttons arrive in your PLC Code? And do the Outputs get set correctly? ---

I’ll show you later because i cant use my laptop rightnow, but i have followed some of yt videos from beginning until end, even the simplest program, but i don’t know why i still cant to simulate them… And when i tried press any button it did not cgange anything in my program, and the opposite was true also. do you know how Could it happen? ---

The document assumes that you know which PG/PC Interface is the one you are using. It won’t match the interfaces available to you, because the name of those interfaces is device-dependant. Choose the one you are using to connect to the PLC. See also [Siemens Documentation](https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/document/42637263/how-do-you-load-a-project-into-the-cpu-in-step-7-(tia-portal)-?dti=0&lc=en-CZ) on this. ---

So, you connected to the PLC, and you can see that the inputs are not getting a signal from Factory I/O? Or what do you mean “it does not change anything”? You could send us your Factory I/O scene file and your TIA Portal file and I could take a look at it to see if I spot anything.
