CHAPTER 2 USING THE PROGRAMMABLE CONTROLLER CPU MONITORING FUNCTION

2.2 About the Programmable Controller CPU Monitoring Function

2.2.2 Programmable controller CPU monitoring information

This section explains the monitoring target information used to execute the programmable controller CPU monitoring

function.

(1) The following information can be registered as the target of the programmable

controller CPU monitoring function.

(a) Device monitoring for the local station's programmable controller CPU

• Monitoring of the numeric values stored in the word device

• Monitoring of the bit device ON/OFF status

(b) Monitoring of the local station's programmable controller CPU status

(2) In monitoring word and bit devices, a maximum total device point value of 960

(equivalent to a maximum of 15360 bits for only bit devices), or a total of 10

blocks when any continuous device range comprises one block, can be

registered. Since monitoring of the local station's programmable controller

CPU status will also be registered as a one-block portion, up to 11 blocks can

be registered.

11  (Number of word device blocks registered + number of bit device blocks registered) + CPU status monitoring

(1 block)

960 points  (Total number of all word device block points (1 point = 1 word) + total number of all bit device block

points(1 point = 16 bits))

(3) With device monitoring of the blocks for which the word and bit devices are

registered, the head device of each block becomes the monitoring target.

For a block in which 10 points of word devices from D100 to D109 are registered

Monitoring target: Numeric value stored in D100

Data transmitted: Numeric values stored in D100 to D109

For a block in which two points of bit devices from M100 to M131 are registered

Monitoring target: ON/OFF status of M100

Data transmitted: ON/OFF status of M100 to M131
