Analog-Input Block
I.1 Simulation
To support testing, you can either change the mode of the block to manual and adjust the
output value, or you can enable simulation through the configuration tool and manually enter a
value for the measurement value and its status.
With simulation enabled, the actual measurement value has no impact on the OUT value or the
status.
