Simulation of Group output

Hi, I'm using ProfiNet with IRC5, simulation of DO works fine, but simulation of GO doesn't work (value is not changing on PLC side). If I set value from module with SetGO it works fine, so communication over ProfinetNet should be fine. Any ideas?

    When an output or group output is simulated, it shows the value in the pendant but it does not actually turn those bits on.  There is very little need to simulate an output, you have the control to force an output on or off, or to enter the numeric value for a group.
