9.2 Simulation
Simulation can be used to check the FMC 671 Z/676 Z and external downstream devices.
Four modes are possible:
• Simulation of frequency, V9H6
• Simulation of level, V9H7
• Simulation of volume, V9H8
• Simulation of current, V9H9.
When a value is entered at the appropriate matrix, the analog outputs are fed with the
appropriate current and voltage.
ActivationEnter operating mode 6 for channel 1 or 7 for channel 2 in V8H0; the red alarm LED
flashes during the simulation.
