Thank you for making these videos! I'm currently in my last year of school before I become a automatician, and these videos helps me learn TIA portal more than my teachers do. Keep them coming!

[@hegamurl7434]

Hi Leif, you are very welcome! I am happy that my videos are of help! (you can share them with your study mates if you want to^^) Most teachers see the topic of automation as very dry and with A LOT of theory... I like the applications of it more... if you just use the stuff, the theory will be understood on it's own

[@sasabaner2664]

Thank you so much. We had Tia Portal at school but they never explained us anything. They said we would learn more if we just try it ourselves, thats why probably the half of class doesn't know anything about TP. Your video helped me to understand sooooooo much moore. Great Content

[@shafagh_projects]

Your videos are amazing and also thanks for your wise and relevant sequential courses.

[@user-br1hv6si2h]

Thank you so much for mentioning that both PLC and HMI need to be simulated! This was that one detail that was causing me a lot of headache and confusion. Great tutorial too

Thank you very much for these videos. Very helpful 💪

[@BoneAppleTea]

I was at the official Siemens account watching a video on HMI (link from teacher), it was so bad and the comments were turned off. The video had more views and less likes than this one which means all the dislikes are hidden by youtube. Hegamurl, you make quality videos and I appreciate your work, thank you :)

[@sanaissa4326]

Thank you for making these videos !

[@EricBalcon]

Absolutely Brilliant video. Thanks so much.

[@klong4128]

Very good introduction to Virtual-plc-automation instead of Real-plc-automation. I had been using Virtual-electronics (100% software simulation) and Real-electronics (100% physical components/devices) .Similar to Virtual-mechanical-engineering and Real-mechanical-engineering. Virtual-Human-life or Real-Human-life are our future !

[@RobNO]

i like how you are teared down between explaining override in a "too long video" or "stay tuned for the next video" like every other youtuber xD Don't worry nobody will be angry :D

[@familjen5863]

i thought HMI was difficult but now i know, it is just touch panel that has buttons, thank u

[@valentino3704]

Hi. Thanks for this vidéo. I used to connect the HMI with the PN/IE link even for simulation. You help me understand my mistakes. Great job..

[@gabrieleeraquelmotta174]

Hi Valentino, could you explain the difference to me? I didn't quite get it from the video. If I just connect with Pn/IE (networking I think he said in the video?) what is the difference, what can the units do and not do? Thanks in advance!

Thank you for the awesome and easy to understand videos! What is your computer setup? I was told that the computer I have, Dell laptop Core I7, would crash if I installed PLC Sim. Do you have any experience with incompatibilities? and or work arounds? Thanks again!

Hello, I like your videos very much. Thank you😊 I have one question. Is there even possibility to activate buttons on HMI not using DB but still only PLC tags?

Great video I must say it helps for my school project I want to learn more but I don’t know in what order I must watch your videos There are a lot of playlists and I don’t know which I must begin (and while those two videos - this one and the HMI/TP integration are following I can’t find an playlist with those two following in it) Can you suggest an order to watch the videos ?

[@JinsonKurianVJames]

Thanks for video

[@PINOYTECHMARLON]

very nice

[@bartroosens2820]

Great video('s)! Great job!! I don't know wether it's possible or not, or there is already a video. But can you combine a simulation with the real hardware. Real HMI with simulated PLC or the other way around! best regards!

[@hazemali7192]

really appreciate

[@Sergnavin]

Please include this video in the playlist TIa Portal: HMI's/TP/WinCC. Without it, there is a logical break. Logically, it should be between the third and fourth video in the playlist.

Hey , do you have any idea how to implement audit trail in wincc v7.4?

[@esverbaas9122]

hello friend, good videos. Bought an HMI and am looking into it. So your videos on this are very helpful. I have a question about this first. Why do you use a physical input. Couldn't that be a Merker? e.g. M0.0 Then you will not be bothered by the physical input.

[@roxterat]

So where do you use Data Blocks? On what video? I can't find it..

[@macua1968]

At the minute 23.55 . Where did you get that" Sim table-1" from ....?

Hello Hegamurl, i have a problem, when i try to change from monitor, (like 23:50) but on my simulation doesn't change, it stays 0, what can i do? I have connected also as you say on the beginning of video

[@shihabahmedalkatrani3050]

Thanks 🙏

[@sunnybachan6027]

Thank you for your videos! You are amazing bro! I have one question.. in the HMI tags, on the left i have the HMI tags and on the right the PLC tags. The PLC tags should be always in a DB, while the HMI tags linked to the actual physical I/O?

[@hegamurl7434]

Thanks! The column HMI tag is the name of a tag on the HMI itself. The column PLC tag is how the tag is linked to a PLC (could be in a DB or also in global memory like "I0.3" or "MB15"). HMI tags could also be flagged as "internal"... those won't have a link to a PLC and have the "PLC tag" column empty

[@ionelrusu7417]

What version of PLC SIM do you use?

[@irridi5656]

thankk you but when i start simulation i can't do the connection so maybe the licence is not a valid one ??

Thanks for this video. Very helpful. Please I'm new to TIA portal and we like to know more about it. I was given an assignment to design a faceplate and I have been battling with it.
