7.2.3 Alarm Mask Function
Table 7.1 shows the parameters related
to the masking of alarms. Users can mask
DIAGNOSIS_EXTENSION by setting the Diagnosis
Mask Extension RW (DIAGNOSIS_MASK_
EXTENSION_RW) parameter. DIAGNOSIS_
EXTENSION displays the results of masking.
For details of DIAGNOSIS_EXTENSION, see Table
8.3.
The DIAGNOSIS_MASK and DIAGNOSIS_MASK_
EXTENSION are a read-only parameter to display
bits which are supported by the device.

7.3 Simulation Function
It is possible to conduct testing for the downstream
function blocks or alarm processes. Following
description is how to use and how to set parameters
of this function.
A SIMULATE_ENABLE switch is mounted in
the transmitter amplifier. This is to prevent the
accidental operation of this function. When this is
switched on, simulation is enabled. (See Figure7.2.)
To initiate the same action from a remote terminal,
if REMOTE LOOP TEST SWITCH is written to the
SIM_ENABLE_MSG parameter (index 51) of the
physical block, the resulting action is the same as is
taken when the above switch is on. In the simulation
status, an alarm is generated from the physical
block, and other device alarms will be masked;
for this reason the simulation must be disabled
immediately after using this function.
