Operator Training Systems are an effective tool for preparing a plant operations staff to use automation systems. The simulated system, also known as a Digital Twin, provides a cost-effective and comprehensive solution for customers. Together, Mimic Simulation Software and the DeltaV Simulate Suite offers:
Implementing a digital twin for operator training has been proven to help customers:

The Virtual Machine CIOC's and physical CIOCs with Simulation enabled can be manipulated using the Charms Simulate application from the DeltaV Engineering group in the Start Menue:
Double click on an Input signal to open the dialog to change value and or status:
From BOL, the Pattern is explained:
This will give you what you are asking for.
On another note, there is a new Mimic license that works with DST's. You can also define the various Bus cards with DeltaV Virtual Studio v4. I think this will support Profibus and DeviceNet, but not Foundation Fieldbus. I have not tried this yet. I expect the DST license would also work with PK controller Logical Devices. This covers the vast majority of Digital Twin requirements.
