I am facing a challenge on communication between simulator and program. It is too slow in connection and scan time is exceeding the watchdog timer (200,000). What could be the reason?

I've had that issue before, there is a Rockwell Knowledge Base article that addresses it. Basically you will need to reduce the number of cores that your CPU is using:

@@wawelk Thanks for your prompt reply. May I know why "Synchronize the module configuration" button is not active for my CCW application with standard version?

If the Micro800 simulator is powered on (power light is green) it will be greyed out. You need to make configuration changes before it is power on.
