Programming and controlling the SIMATRIX from a PC

The SIMATRIX parametrization and control by PC is possible by serial link cable.
With SIMATRIX NEO V2 also LAN parametrization is possible.

1.3.1 Software

installation

Proceed as follows to install the

VM_WIN8

programming software on your

computer:

Insert the CD

Now the setup starts automatically.
if not, then please start “setup.exe” on the CD.

If you don't want start the program via

Start > Programs

drag the

VM_WIN8.EXE

program icon from the installation directory to the desktop. You

can change the name if required, to

VM_WIN8

for example.

Double-click the program icon to start the programming software.

When starting program, you will be asked to enter a PIN code. The factory
setting is

12345

. You can change the PIN code using

vm_pin.exe
