See Simulation Macro Icon Properties

Simulation Macros are available to use to enhance simulation only of components, they operate in the same way as Component Macros, although cannot be run on hardware as they do not download any code to compile to the chip.

Simulation Macros can be used to create simulation-only systems using Flowcode, this allows you to plan bigger projects and provide proof of concept using components to simulate programs on software.


Many components have Simulation Macros available, some may have none and some may consist of only Simulation Macros, these components are known as simulation components. The majority of components available incorporate more Component Macros than Simulation Macros.


As well as Simulation Macros, the icon can also create Simulation Functions which allows the creation and expansion of simulation, software side programs, this extensive set of functions enables advanced systems to be created easily using the intuitive API and easy to use Flowcode interface.
