7.3 Simulation
The simulation function simulates the input of the AI
block and lets it operate as if the data were received
from the transducer block.
When the simulation parameter is set to “enable”, the
applicable AI block uses the simulation value set in
this parameter instead of the data from the transducer
block.

Description
T0703.EPS
In simulation enabled status, an alarm (AL.62) is
generated from the physical block, and other device
alarms will be masked; for this reason the simulation
must be disabled immediately after using this function.
NOTE
Fail safe mode function has a priority over
simulation function. In this case, value and
status setting by fail safe mode output.
The Setting procedure is as follows;
Example: Simulation Quality: Good, Status: OK,
Output Value: 50 (%)
( Scale In: 0 to 100kPa, Out Scale: 0 to
100kPa)
From the DTM-Works window, click [Device]

[Connect]
Click [Device]

[Parameter]
→
[Online]
Double-click on [Output] folder
→
Click on [Analog
Input 1] folder
Change Simulation to [Enabled]
Change Simulation Value to [50] (%)
Change Simulation Quality to [Good]
Change Status to [OK]
The output value is displayed in the Output Value
field.
Change Simulation to [Disabled].
