Test Mode
Test mode is used to simulate the application and confirm that all parameters
and relay setpoints have been entered as expected. During simulation, there
is a choice of whether the relays will change state (hard simulation) or not
(soft simulation), but the LED’s will always change state to indicate that the
relay setpoints have been activated, and the mA output will change. If you
wish to test the logic of the system that the
relays are connected
to then
select
hard simulation
, but if you
don’t want to change the relay state
,
then select a
soft simulation
.
There are two simulation modes,
automatic
and
manual
.
Automatic
simulation will move the velocity up and down between minimum velocity
and maximum velocity, whereas
manual
simulation will allow
you
to move
the velocity up and down using the arrow keys.
To enter simulation, first go to
program mode
. Then, using the menu
system, select menu item ‘
Test
’ then sub-menu item ‘
Simulation
’. Simply
change the value of the parameter
P980
to one of the following:
1= Manual soft simulation
2= Automatic soft simulation
3= Manual hard simulation
4= Automatic hard simulation
To return to program mode, press
CANCEL
and test mode will end.
When in
manual
simulation, by default test mode will move the flow or
velocity by 0.25 steps. Altering the
increment
(
P981
) will change this
value.
In
automatic
mode, the rate at which the velocity moves up and down is set
by the
increment
(
P981
), and the
rate
(
P982
) in minutes, which can be
changed to make the flow or velocity move up and down faster. E.g. if
increment
(
P981
) is set for 0.25 and
rate
(
P982
) is set to 1 min then the
flow or velocity will increase or decrease at a rate of 0.25/min. To make the
simulated flow or velocity move slower, decrease the value in
increment
(
P981
) or increase the value in
rate
(
P982
). To make the simulated flow or
velocity move faster, increase the value in
increment
(
P981
) or decrease the
value in
rate
(
P982
).
