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 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.
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.
P982 Rate
In automatic mode, the rate at which the level will move up and down is
determined by distance, P981 Increment and the time, P982 Rate which by
default is set to 1min and can be changed as required. To increase the rate at which
the level moves increase the Increment (P981) or decrease the Rate (P982). To
decrease the rate at which the level moves decrease the Increment (P981) or
increase the Rate (P982).
