Recipe Simulator
The DeltaV Recipe Simulator application allows you to simulate production during the development stage, without affecting any real time processes. The Recipe Simulator application is run on the same machine as the Batch Executive. Additionally, the Recipe Simulator must also be run in the same session as the Batch Executive; therefore, the Recipe Simulator does not run in a Terminal Session.
Recipe Simulator can be used to:
Test phase configuration and synchronization
Test new recipes
Determine how long batches will take to run
Operator input
Equipment arbitration
Recipe Simulator has the following screens that allow you to evaluate your process.
Phase Status - lets users monitor phases. Registers are displayed that indicate the state of the phase, such as Status, Step Index, Request, Failure, and so on.
Phase Configuration - lets users configure phases, including parameter upload and download, messages, and synchronization.
