Exercise - Simulating a Program

This exercise looks at testing the flowchart 'Lamp1.fcf' which you developed in the exercises Creating Your First Flowchart and Adding Devices to Your First Flowchart.
The first part of this process is to simulate the flowchart. This tests the program only, and not the hardware. It is done within the Flowcode program itself, and does not require that any hardware is present. For more details about simulation, see Overview of Simulation.

Load the Flowcode Flowchart

• Open the flowchart, called 'Lamp1.fcf' which you created in the exercise Creating Your First Flowchart.

(For help with this, see the exercise Opening an Existing Flowchart)

Run the simulation

• Click on the 'Run' icon,(or hit the F5 function key.)
