I literally read the whole manual, and I can't seem to connect to the machine I am missing something?
The demo programs works fine as soon as I send and transfer program and power up virtualPLC the disconnected status on machine changes to stop mode. But in my own program I just can't seem to link from virtual plc to Machine, the ethernet light is yellow. Any help will be appreciated.

Now I unmarked the box on simulatedDriver where it says enabled, and the ethernet is green and the status on the virtualPLC is connected but machine still says disconnected.

Can you send me your program in order to see if is ok?.
Also some screenshots showing your problem will help.
Thanks.
Please once you solve the problems, will be useful for all users if you comment what was the operation done to make the system works!!!
I really don't know what was causing the problem, but I just made it a routine to save, compile, connect to plc, and run plc.
I figured out what's wrong with the software, when you create a new project the default I/O device doesn't connect at all with the machine, now I remembered what I did with my last project, I had to remove the default I/O device, add a new one and configure it, then it works like a charm, not sure why when a new project is created the I/O device doesn't work, perhaps a bug. Just wanted to let the creator how I made it work. ;D
