In this paper, we study scalar inflation in detail by applying the preheating of LATTICEEASY simulation. In general, scalar inflation potential with non-minimal coupling can be approximated to the quartic potential inflation. We observe that the evolutionary trend of this potential is independent of the coupling coefficient, and theoretical predictions for the scalar spectral index $n_s$ and tensor-to-scalar power ratio $r$ are also independent of the coefficient, which implies that the coefficients of this model will not be bounded by the Planck observations. Fortunately, the properties of preheating after inflation provide a feasible scheme to study those coefficients. For the preheating process, the evolution of particle number density, scale factor, and energy density can be restored and tracked by applying LATTICEEASY simulation, then the parameters energy ratio $\gamma$ and the e-folding number of preheating $N_{pre}$ will be deduced, and the $n_s$ and $r$ can be further predicted. We have tested the scalar inflation model by the preheating nature of LATTICEEASY based on the analytical relationship between preheating and inflation models.
