    Have you followed the documentation?: http://www.xsimulator.net/simtools-quickstart/

    What control boards are you using and how did you set them up?

    And please post a description with photos of what you have done, so at least we have a known starting point.

    I have a simulator of "CKAS" who works with X-SIM
    (DOF2 simulator AC motors)
    I'd like to run the simulator with SIMTOOLS, I've assembled a quick set up.
    I do not know what to set presets, Axis Assignments.
    Thank's

    The axis is easy as you don't have to use a preset, you cn set what suits your sim by setting the orange boxes on or off as needed. However, you need to have a way for SimTools to interact with your sim, which is done in the Interface Settings. I have no idea what control board a CKAS uses. If it is an Arduino it would be easy but if not there would need to be an interface created. @yobuddy can you advise?

    @eitan karni,

    can you show the setup setting for xsim for your CKAS system?
    Then maybe we can advise you...
    take care!
