 If SIMM (fetched through SIML, if populated) is YES, the record is put in SIMS
 severity and the value is written through SIOL, without conversion.
+If SIMM is RAW, the value is converted and RVAL is written.
 SSCN sets a different SCAN mechanism to use in simulation mode.
 SDLY sets a delay (in sec) that is used for asynchronous simulation
 processing.
