Hi,
the tutorial "How to build FORTE for Wago" is only helpfull for you if you have Wago PLC hardware. However 4diac FORTE can be built for many different platforms and hardware. If you want to simulate the behavior of a 4diac based PLC on your computer you can do that by running 4diac directly there. Both windows and Linux are supported. There is a section "FORTE for Windows and Unix based systems" which describes the steps necessary. You can also enable OPC UA support for this. See the according OPC UA documentation.
I hope this helps.
Alois

Hi Obaid,
4diac FORTE is an execution environment for IEC 61499 PLC programms. As such it abstracts the hardware it is running on and provides a unified execution environment for your FB networks. In order to do that 4diac FORTE has a small hardware abstraction layer which needs to be ported to different PLCs. For testing and debugging purposes we have FORTE also running on normal PCs running windows and Linux. There it is just a normal executable you just can start and utilize to execute your IEC 61499 programms on a PCs. Maybe to get a better impression it would make sense that you have a look on our tutorials. There this process is explained. Hope that this makes things clearer.
Cheers,
Alois
