6.2.10Simulation Mode The Simulation Mode function lets you verify communication between a Rosemount 2410 Tank Hub and a host system without connecting actual field devices. The 2410 Tank Hub Simulation window allows you to choose which parameters to be calculated by the 2410. The calculations are based on input from simulated tank measurement data such as product level, average temperature, liquid pressure, and other variables.

The Simulation HREGS holding registers (starting with register number 3800) lets you specify the desired simulation data.

For information on how to view and edit holding registers, see “Viewing Input and Holding Registers” on page 6-2or the Raptor System Configuration Manual (Document No. 300510EN).

1.In the TankMaster WinSetup workspace select the 2410 icon.

2.Click the right mouse button and choose the Simulation option to open the 2410 Tank Hub Simulation window:

TankMaster WinSetup

3.Choose simulation mode Single Tank and the desired tank in the Tank Position field, or choose the All option to simulate all tanks connected to the 2410. Tank Position refers to the position in the 2410 tank database.

4.In the Simulation Time field, enter for how long the simulation will continue.

Simulation can be stopped at any time by pressing the Stop button.

5.Calculate Parameter:

in the standard configuration the check-boxes are unchecked, which means that each simulation parameter is given a specific standard simulation value as specified in the simulation holding register area:

6.Click the Start button to start simulating the tank parameters.

7.In the WinSetup workspace the 2410 icon changes to the following appearance to indicate that Simulation Mode is active:
