Checking the correct behaviour of the device
The feature allows you to check if the device has the expected behaviour depending on the settings you
have made.
You can check the behaviour of the device:
•
by simulating one or several process values
•
by simulating one or several events
15.21.1
Selecting the process values to be simulated
The cut-off feature is not checked when simulating a flow rate value.
To check the behaviour by simulating a process value, do the following:
→
Select the device in the navigation area.
→
SAW sensor
→
Maintenance
→
Simulation
→
Meas. values
→
Process value
→
Select one or several process values
→
Values to simulate
The previously selected process values are displayed.
→
Select a process value.
→
Enter the value to be simulated
→
Apply
The status of the simulation is automatically set to
Running
and the value is being simulated.
→
Check if the device behaves depending on the settings you have made.
The simulation is active as long as the status
Running
is active. Thus, you can:
•
leave the menu to check if a measurement view shows the simulated value or if the analogue output asso-
ciated to one of the simulated physical quantities gives out the correct current value (see chpt
18.2
)*)
• or simulate another value for the same process value and/or another process value
•
or simulate one or several events
→
To stop the simulation, see chpt.
