The FactoryTalk Batch Phase Simulator

FactoryTalk Batch
comes with a phase logic simulation program that allows you to run the
FactoryTalk Batch
software and simulate your batch process without being connected to a PCD. The
FactoryTalk Batch
Phase Simulator imitates the functionality of a data server and communicates with the
FactoryTalk Batch
Server using the OPC communication protocol. This is a powerful tool for testing, experimentation and demonstration purposes.
TIP:
The Simulator is automatically started by the
FactoryTalk Batch
Server if required by the area model.
The Simulator allows you to save report parameter values.
TIP:
When running a material-enabled phase, RUNNING logic should not have any configured requests. You must set the FEED_COMPLETE report parameter to
1
and set a value for the ACTUAL_AMOUNT report parameter. Save the simulation file after making these changes.
