In general, to simulate diagnostics via PDM:
1. Go to the menu "Device" in PDM and choose "Simulation > Diagnostics".
2. On the tab "Diagnostics simulation", click button "Enable" (button toggles between "Enable"
and "Disable") to put the device in simulation mode.
3. Select the diagnostics to simulate from the drop-down list provided for the "Diagnostics" field.
4. For each diagnostic selected, set the "Action" to be simulated: "Set" or "Reset".
5. Start simulation (click "Transfer" button).
The status of the simulation for each diagnostic selected, can be seen on the remaining tabs
in the dialogue window. The diagnostic being simulated will show a checked box.
End simulation on the tab "Diagnostics simulation":
• To end simulation of a specific diagnostic, click the button "Enable/Disable Simulation"
(below the "Action" field).
• To stop device simulation at any time, click the toggle button at the top of the window from
"Enable" to "Disable".

Operating via SIMATIC PDM

SIMATIC PDM is a software package used to commission and maintain process devices. Please
consult the operating instructions or online help for details on using SIMATIC PDM. You can find
more information on versions and compatibility at our website.
8.6.1.1

PDM function overview

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 are identified by name and organized into function groups. See Changing
parameter settings using SIMATIC PDM (Page 97) for more details. The menu structure
for SIMATIC PDM is almost identical to that for the LCD.
See Parameters accessed via pull-down menus (Page 98) for parameters that do not appear
in the menu structure in SIMATIC PDM.
