While using the Simulation Client, you can change the
Status of assets. This allows you to see how it will behave while
that Status is active in Runtime.
On the Assets and Workflows tab, change the
Status of a selected asset by taking the following steps:
-
In the Systems pane, select an integrated system.
-
The assets from the system are listed in the Assets
pane.
-
The asset's available statuses are displayed in the
Status pane. Double-click a status or select it and
click Set Status.
Note: This pane will appear differently for
IPFusion PLC
Devices. The representation of assets is unique, based on
the
Status Word provided by the PLC. Type in the
decimal representation of a 16-bit word for the asset in the text box
provided.

Warning: After
clicking one of the status buttons, the status will be immediately
written to the asset.
-
In the Runtime Simulation you can view the asset change states if it is
available from the simulated Workstation.
