Simulate™ Update

Several updates have been made to Simulate, enhancing its accessibility and efficiency while providing a smoother user experience. Key improvements include enhanced customization options, faster workflows, and better visual controls, allowing you to create and adjust configurations more accurately.

Simulate is a web-based application that lets you upload Whelen Command® WeCanX® configurations to see how they will look and sound on a vehicle. With Simulate, you can preview configurations for lightbars, lightheads, and Core® control systems before they are connected to a vehicle.

What’s New:

Open Shared Simulations from Menu Bar:
You can now open shared simulations directly from the menu bar, skipping the need to go back to the home page.

We have added more snap points, to provide greater flexibility for positioning outputs and lightbars.
