Selecting a Parameter to Change
Introduction
To select a parameter in the “Live Monitor” dialog box, click on the name of the parameter or use the
Up/Down keys to select a parameter.
Read only
If you click on a parameter that is “Read Only” the WRITE button will be grayed out.
Write to a contained parameter
Some blocks allow you to change contained parameters [for example: Bias and Failsafe values of an AI
(Analog Input) block] through the “Live Monitor” dialog box. When a contained parameter can be written
to, the write button will be enabled. Enter the value in the entry field and click “WRITE”. The value for
the parameter selected will change to the value entered.
See Figure 62. Note that the same procedure applies for all monitored function blocks.
