Virtual PLCs / LADV400
Wartens LADV400 · planned
LADV400
Edge controller that runs outside the browser.
The same runtime as a server process that other software can reach over open protocols, Modbus TCP and OPC UA, so a 3D simulator or a SCADA can drive it for virtual commissioning. Designed, not yet built.
Who it is for
Built for
- Integrators doing virtual commissioning
- Universities with simulation labs
- SCADA and HMI developers
Good for
- Connecting a 3D plant model to tested logic
- Running a SCADA against a controller with no hardware
- Automated regression tests for PLC programs in CI
Outside the browser
The same runtime as a server process, in a container, so it runs beside other software rather than inside a tab.
Open protocols
Modbus TCP and OPC UA, so a 3D plant simulator, a SCADA or an HMI can read and write its I/O. That is what virtual commissioning needs.
Tests in CI
Run a PLC program against a twin on every change, the way software is tested, and keep the results as evidence.
