1. PREPARATORY PROCEDURES FOR MONITORING
1.6 Checking for Normal Monitoring
1.6.3 Confirming the communication state to each station (Station monitoring
function)
The station monitoring function detects the faults (communication timeout) of the stations monitored by the GOT.
When an abnormal state is detected, the function assigns the information of the faulty station to the GOT special
register (GS).
(1) No. of faulty stations
(a) For the Ethernet connection (except for the Ethernet multiple connection)
Total No. of the faulty CPU are stored.
(b) For Ethernet multiple connection
The total No. of the faulty devices is stored.
