Control circuits.
In your pocket.

Draw it, run it, find the fault. From contactors to PLCs, from drives to solar PV.

200 tasks. 62 ready-made circuits. 14 chapters. From contactor basics to star-delta, from PLCs to solar PV. Every one a real panel circuit.

Simulator

See where the current goes.

Press Start. K1 pulls in, holds itself through its own contact and the lamp lights up. Press Stop and K1 drops out. This circuit works right here, too.

Start-Stop L1N -F1 -S1 -S2 -K11314 -K1A1A2 -K12324 -H1 StopStart

K1 dropped out. Lamp off.

Highlights

Everything in the panel.
All in one app.

From schematic to panel.

Every circuit has a schematic, a wiring view with real devices and a panel layout. Wires go to the screw terminals.

200

tasks in 14 chapters. Run the circuit, add the missing part, find the fault.

PLC and ladder.

Inputs, outputs and the program work together.

PLC ladder program

Frequency drives.

Change a parameter, watch the speed change.

Frequency drive simulation

Solar PV.

Wire the panels, the inverter and the meter. Change the sun and the temperature, watch the values live.

4,82kW, live output

HMI.

Design the operator panel. Control the circuit from it.

Multimeter.

Measure between any two points. Hunt the fault like you would on site.

Works offline.

No account needed. Your projects stay on your device.

Tasks

Find the fault.
Collect the stars.

In tasks the circuit comes broken. A loose wire, a wrong contact, a missing part. Try it in the simulator, find it and fix it. When you finish, you see how the circuit works.

Questions and answers.

Do I need internet?

No. The app works offline and without an account. An account is only needed to move projects between devices and to use Pro on the web.

Which devices does it run on?

iPhone, iPad, Android phones and tablets. On a computer, use the web version in your browser.

Is it free?

It is free to download. Tasks in every chapter, ready-made circuits and free drawing are free. Pro unlocks everything.

Which symbols does it use?

IEC 60617 symbols and the terminal numbers common in Europe, such as A1-A2, 13-14 and 95-96.

Who is it for?

Electricians, electrical students, instructors and anyone who works with control panels.
