Simulation (under PDM appendix)
Both process values and diagnostics can be simulated in SIMATIC PDM. For more details,
see Simulation (Page 89).
D.1.2
Overview SIMATIC PDM
SIMATIC PDM (Process Device Manager) is a general-purpose, manufacturer-independent tool
for the configuration, parameter assignment, commissioning, diagnostics and maintenance of
intelligent field devices and field components. Follow-up installations and additional
information on SIMATIC PDM are available on the Internet at SIMATIC PDM
www.siemens.com/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.
For information on, for example, how to install and integrate devices, commission
the software, see Operating Manual 'Help for SIMATIC PDM'. The manual is delivered
with SIMATIC PDM software. Once the SIMATIC PDM is installed on your computer
you find the manual under: Start > All programs > Siemens Automation > SIMATIC
> Documentation. Link at our website: SIMATIC PDM instructions and manuals
