Enables you to set your VTScada applications to operate in simulation mode, as though a fully-configured system is in operation. The following drivers will generate a random value for attached input tags approximately every 15 seconds while SimulateIO is TRUE (1). Input tags do not require any particular value for their Area parameter. Attached output tags are not given random values and values are not written.
- AB driver
- Campbell RTU
- DNP3
- FINS
- GESeries90
- Koyo
- Modbus
- Motorola
- Omron
- OPCClient
- PakBus
- Workstation Status
If set to 1, the simulation mode is switched on.
Section: System
Default: SimulateIO = 0
*No restart required (Settings.Dynamic property)
The DemoMode property is similar, but affects only certain status tags with "Demo" in their Area parameter.
The DFSimulateOn property further enables you to enhance the simulation by mocking the transmission and reception of data from Data Flow RTUs to the application.
