Detecting Input State
This feature is designed to monitor all inputs for a change of state whenever you start I/O monitoring. A
change from the defined state (N/O to N/C or N/C to N/O) can activate an alarm condition, e.g. a
warning light or buzzer.
1. On the main screen, click the I/O button, and then select Detect Input Status. This dialog box
appears.

2. Check the Input(s) you want to monitor.
3. For any state change, you can trigger an alarm output by checking Force Output when one or
more inputs are abnormal, and assigning the output module and pin number.
4. When the state change is detected, a warning message will pop up on the screen. In the Auto
close abnormal notify after x sec field, you can define the duration of the message to close itself
automatically.
After settings, you can manually detect all input states by selecting Detect Input Status. Or, you can
just start I/O monitoring. When the system detects any change of input state, you may see this warning
message:
