2.Press any key to enter the main menu. Move the cursor to "Program" and press Enter (F4).

3.Move the cursor to "Simulated tests" and press Enter (F4).

4.Move the cursor to the desired output or alarm. Both outputs and all four alarms can be tested. Press Enter (F4).

A screen will appear warning that the output or alarm will change. Press Cont (F3) to continue. Press Abort (F1) to cancel the simula- tion.

5.This screen appears when an output is being simulated. To change the simulation current, press Edit (F4). Use the arrow keys to change the current to the desired value. Press Test (F4), then Esc (F3).

The simulated current will be generated for 10 minutes, then the out- put returns to normal operation. To change the timeout to a different value see Section 5.5.

To end the simulation at any time, press Exit (F1).

6.This screen appears when an alarm is being simulated. To change the state of the relay, press Edit (F4). Use the é or ê keys to change from open to closed. Press Test (F4), then Esc (F3).
