How do I create a virtual Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) using Rockwell Automation's FactoryTalk Logix Echo Software?

FactoryTalk Logix Echo is a software that can emulate a virtual PLC for purposes such as virtual commissioning and testing PLC code without the need for physical hardware.

In this educational video, Henry Gilliland, a mechatronics specialist, guides viewers through creating a virtual PLC using Rockwell Automation's FactoryTalk Logix Echo software. He demonstrates how to create an emulation of a virtual PLC that can be used for virtual commissioning and testing PLC code without physical hardware. The tutorial covers setting up the virtual environment, downloading a PLC program, and running it in a virtual commissioning tool.
