Hi Dennis Duku!

You can use PLCSIM Advanced.

I use also PLCSIM Advanced and Simulator working correctly.

@Dennis Duku , if use only PLCSIM, you have to use NETTOPLCSIM.

@mcendron are you sure, do you have communication between Simulator and PLC ?

Did you enable PUT/GET communication?

Try to force outputs and check the movement of the conveyor or cylinders.
