13.11.1 Simulation on/off


The Simulation on/off function allows the operator to activate or deactivate simulation. If simulation is
activated, all output signals will be generated based on the selected type of simulation. The peripherals
connected to the device can be tested without a flowing product. Press

↵ to display the current status.

Simulation

[off]


As mentioned in Section 12.4.3.1 Selection window/make a selection, the operator toggle between the
“on” and “off.”

Simulation will be deactivated automatically if the operator switched the device off or did not touch any
control unit keys for about 10 minutes.

13.11.2 Direct simulation


This function allows the operator to define whether simulation is comprised of the measurement of the
three physical values mass flow, density and temperature or whether the outputs will be set directly.

Simulation

[direct]


As mentioned in Section 12.4.3.1 Selection window/make a selection, the operator can choose between
the following settings:

¾

Direct

pulse and current outputs are programmed directly

¾

QM, D, T

a measurement is simulated


If “direct” simulation is activated, any output will perform based on the settings described in Sections
13.11.4.1 Status output simulation to 13.11.4.4 Simulation current output I2. It is therefore recommended
that the settings be defined before starting simulation. They can then be purposefully changed during
simulation.

The status of the outputs during measured value simulation based on the setting “QM, D, T” depends on
the selected simulation values of these three variables, the measuring range settings and the assignment
of the outputs. If, for example, the pulse output is assigned to volume measurement, it will be affected by
all three simulation values at the same time [V ≈ QM (T) / D (T)].

Simulation will be deactivated automatically if the operator switched the device off or did not touch

any control unit keys for about 10 minutes.
