Simulate Analog Input to AIFB1 or AIFB2
You can test your device configuration by simulating the sensor value and status being
fed into the Analog Input Function Block, to ensure that your sensor calibration has been
correctly carried out for your application.
1) Open the menu Device – Simulation, and select the desired function block.
2) Click on the tab Simulation (Measured value).
3) Enable simulation, enter a value in sensor units, set the desired quality and status

and click on Transfer.
4) The substitute Output value is displayed in PDM and on the
LCD display, in units defined for the function block in
question. See
Simulate Output below, to set the output
mode.
5) After simulation is complete, disable simulation and click on
Transfer.
Notes:
• The Simulation parameter influences output to the control system.
• Make sure that simulation is disabled after simulation is complete.
