## Description



###  Overview

This application example shows how to export a Simulink virtual sensor model and run it on an Industrial Edge Device with the LiveTwin application. The model can read data from a PLC and send the current status back to the PLC. 



### General task

The main goal of this automation task is to create a Simulink model that simulates a shock sensor, export it to the required format and run it on the Industrial Edge Device using LiveTwin. The Industrial Edge Device can read data from the PLC simulating vibrations via  SIMATIC Flow Creator application using the S7 communication protocol. The model can evaluate whether the vibrations have occurred and send the current shock status back to the PLC. The data flow can be visualized by using the SIMATIC Flow Creator application.






## Requirements



###  Prerequisities



- Onboarded Industrial Edge Device on IEM

- Installed system configurators

- Installed Industrial Edge System Applications applications

- Installed LiveTwin and SIMATIC Flow Creator applications

- Industrial Edge Device is connected to the PLC 

- TIA portal project downloaded to the PLC ([TIA project](src/Shock_detection1500.zip))



### Used components



- Industrial Edge Device V 1.2.0-56

- PLC: CPU 1511

- TIA Portal V16 

- Matlab 2019b

- SIMATIC Flow Creator V 1.0.5
