Simulated Test Messages
Present Weather Sensor FS11P can be set to a simulation mode, which
includes transmitting fixed or user defined visibility and status
information. This function is intended for system testing purposes. The
normal visibility detection mode takes effect after a reset. The simulation
mode can also be stopped with the advanced level command
SIMULATE OFF.
The user can either choose a fixed test message or define the entire
message content. The fixed simulation message is selected with the
advanced level command SIMULATE TEST_MESSAGE.
There is a predefined fixed test message for each message type. If a fixed
test message is selected, one of the messages in the following section is
transmitted depending on the message type selection. The data values in
the messages are as shown in the following section. The frames of the
messages are not fixed but depend on the current configuration.
When changing the predefined fixed test message type, first turn the
simulation off by giving the advanced level command SIMULATE OFF
and then change the message type (with the command SET MESSAGE
TYPE number). Turn the simulation on again by giving the command
SIMULATE TEST_MESSAGE.
Message 3 (Status message) has no simulation message.
