TKO Circuit Simulator

Powerful and versatile.

Universal

The simulator can be used on any device with Java installed, creating opportunities for learning at home.

Accurate

Rendered from CAD files, every device is an accurate representation of the real FRC hardware, with ports and LEDs.

Intuitive

A simple yet powerful user interface allows anyone to diagram a basic robot e-plate in only 15 minutes.

Features

Simulate wiring and devices

The simulation features allows users to check if components are wired correctly. If a device will not function properly, it gives the user the reason.

Detailed error messages for incorrect wiring
LEDs are simulated with different colors and blinking
Recursive checks to debug complicated CAN chains

Saving and Importing

All circuits can be saved to a file (often only a few MB in size), and these can be imported into the simulator again later, even if the simulator is running on a different device.

Students can share circuits with their instructors
Circuit templates can be stored for later use
Utilizes optimized saving process

FRC Components

All commonly used FRC components are included, including the PDP, RoboRIO, motors, motor controllers, pneumatics, etc. The full component list can be found on GitHub.

Accurately scaled to real dimensions
Clean device representations with ports and LEDs
Different cable types and gauges
