Active optics systems have been designed for most of the recently built medium and large telescopes. Anyway the number of working active optics systems is still relatively small and there are some differences in the various technologies and solutions. This paper describes a toolbox for active optics simulation developed in the framework of a specific project, but general enough to be useful in most of the cases. The toolbox deals with both off-line and online activities: it generates fictitious Shack-Hartmann fits images, supports different kinds of polynomials (Zernike, quasi-Zernike, normalized Zernike, minimum energy modes) to fit the wavefront data, and performs calculation of primary mirror actuator forces and secondary mirror position corrections, simulating also the usage of hexapod systems.
