In this tutorial, you'll learn how to simulate IO mapping using the Robot Controller Simulation (RCS) in iiQWorks.Sim. We walk through building a custom Python-driven component called IntegerDummy to send and monitor digital signals in the simulation of a KR 10 R1100-2 robot. You’ll see how to trigger robot actions based on integer values and validate output signals using the Monitoring Window. This method allows full control of robot behavior in a virtual environment, which is ideal for testing before real-world deployment.
