Test Parameters
Simulation
P980 Simulate
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 colour as programmed,
and the current output will change. If you want to test the logic of the
system that the relays are connected to then select a 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 level up and down between empty level or the pre-
determined
Start Level (P983) and Pump/Control relay switch points, if
you wish to change the direction of the level movement e.g. to go beyond
relay setpoints, this can be done by using the arrow keys. In manual
simulation, using the arrow keys will allow you to move the level up and
down as required.
The choices for you to enter are as follows.
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.
Note
Pump start delay (which by default is 10 seconds) is set to 0 during
simulation.
P981 Increment
By default , simulation mode will move by 0.1m steps in manual simulation
and by 0.1m/min in automatic simulation. Altering the increment can change
this value.
