Running the Driver in Simulation Mode
You can run the driver in simulation mode by enabling the option in the Power Tool
and restarting the server.
To enable simulation mode in the Power Tool
[1] Start the Power Tool.
[2] Select Setup from the Options menu. The Setup dialog box appears.
[3] Select the Advanced tab.
[4] Click the Simulation Mode On option.
To restart the server
[1] Shut down all server clients, including FIX/iFIX. This action shuts down the
server.
[2] Restart FIX/iFIX.
Once the server restarts, you can create your operator displays and process databases
with real I/O addresses. Later, when you want to switch to real process hardware,
turn off simulation mode and restart the server again. You can do this without
changing your configured I/O addresses.
