setting station type to simulator effectively creates a station which pretends to create data and gives the data to weewx. weewx then does everything it should do with the 'received' data including generate reports. it will also store the dta in the database, so when you have finished using simulator you will need to clear out the simulation data from the database - usually just deleting the database file is sufficient.
