Industrial Ethernet switch

The industrial ethernet switch is a reusable 3D networking component for networking layouts. In this simulator it adds a reusable, correctly scaled object to a complete automation scene.

Motion and state

Its visible state changes with simulated I/O, making status and diagnosis readable in the scene.

PLC control pattern

Commission it by proving active feedback before accepting enable.

Fault practice

Inject stuck-on, stuck-off states and require the PLC sequence to detect, stop and recover deliberately.

Engineering boundary

The model teaches PLC sequence behaviour and diagnosis. Confirm ratings, wiring, guarding, process calculations and commissioning limits against the real manufacturer documentation and site design.
