Changing parameter settings using SIMATIC PDM

SIMATIC PDM monitors the process values, alarms and status signals of the device. It allows you
to display, compare, adjust, verify, and simulate process device data; also to set schedules for
calibration and maintenance.
Parameters in SIMATIC PDM are identified by name and organized into function groups, similar
to the structure of the local display (HMI).
Within SIMATIC PDM, parameters can be found in a structured view (which can be accessed
when the device is offline), or in the PDM menus (when device is online): Device, View,
Diagnostics.
See:
• SIMATIC PDM structure view image (Page 112)
• Parameters accessed via PDM menus (Page 112)

changes in the device.
