Right, the demo project needs the updated simulator module that is available in 7.1.2 but we have not released it yet. Until we release, you can download the Allen-Bradley Drivers-module.modl from the development section and install it.
Even after installing the Beta you still need to install the Allen-Bradley module, least I did. I also had to re-boot to allow the log in, not sure why.
