Simulation

You can use the device to simulate the following via remote operation (e.g. field communicator,
SIMATIC PDM):
● Input and output values
– Constant pressure values
– Ramp function
● Diagnostics

Simulate constant pressure values

Procedure
To simulate a constant pressure value via remote operation (e.g. SIMATIC PDM), follow these
steps:
1. For the "Simulation mode" parameter, set the "Enabled" option to simulate a constant
pressure value.
2. Select the pressure value ("Process value") to be simulated from the drop-down list under
the "Simulation selection" parameter.
3. For the "Simulation value" parameter, set the desired constant pressure value for the
simulation.
4. Set status to be simulated for the "PV status" parameter.
5. Click "Transfer" to start the simulation.
6. For the "Simulation mode" parameter, set the "Disabled" option to stop the simulation.
Result
The measured value is replaced by a constant simulation value. The simulation influences the
output signal.
