摘要

A sequence control program and an HMI control program are synchronized and simulated. A program development support unit includes a calculation unit and a storage unit. A sequence control editing program for achieving a sequence control editing unit, an HMI control editing program for achieving an HMI control editing unit, and an integration simulation management program for achieving an integration simulation management unit are stored in the storage unit. The integration simulation management unit manages the synchronization of simulation of the sequence control program and simulation of the HMI control program. The integration simulation management unit executes variable management process. In the variable management process, common variables are exchanged between the sequence control program and the HMI control program during execution of the simulation of the sequence control program and the simulation of the HMI control program.
