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 LCD menu
structure (Page 267) for a chart and Changing parameter settings using SIMATIC PDM
(Page 76) 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 77) for parameters that do not appear
in the menu structure in SIMATIC PDM.
