8.7 Monitoring system variables with the Watch table
Use the "Watch table" of S7T Config to monitor the system variables of technology
objects. The "Watch table" in S7T Config can be compared with the variable table
of STEP 7.
You can group different variables in watch tables in order to monitor the entire
group, for example, the system variables of several technology objects and the
user variables of several programs.
