The monitorin view in the 1-Window-Editor view can be deactivated and re-activated
via command 'Extra' 'Monitoring Active' resp. <Alt>+<X>+<M>.
The watch variable can be preset with constant values and then in online mode the
watch list be written to the variables on the PLC as a so-called recipe (command 'Write
Recipe'). The presetting can also be done with the current values from the PLC. For this
purpose in onlne mode the command 'Extras' 'Read Recipe' is used. In this case any
possibly already existing recipe values will be overwritten.
New watch variables can also be added in online mode via variaous mechanisms. On
this see: Creating Watch Lists, Recipes.
'Extras' 'Read Recipe'
With the command, in the Online Mode of the Watch and Recipe Manager, you can
replace the presetting of the variables (see Offline Mode) with the present value of
the variables.
Example:
PLC_PRG.Counter [:= <present value>] = <present value>
Note!
The command only concerns the values of that watch list, which is currently
selected in the Watch and Recipe Manager!
Force and Write values in the Watch and Recipe Manager
In online mode in each watch list you can Force values and Write values.
In the tabular editor you can enter a value in column prepared value and thus prepare
that value for forcing or writing on the PLC. For this purpose select the respective cell
(mouseclick resp. navigation within the table via the arrow keys) and by a mouseclick
or the <Enter> key open a dialog for entering the value. If they have the same data
type, also the cells of multiple variables can be selected at once in order to get the
same value prepared for all these variables. For multiselection of the cells just keep
the <Shift> button pressed while selecting the particular cells.
In the 1-Window-Editor by a mouseclick on an specified variable value you also can
open a corresponding dialog for entering the value which should be forced or written.
