Once you establish your file data, you’ll want to edit, load, or monitor your file
data. To do these functions the processor has a data monitor mode. This mode
lets you access your file in two ways: either by displaying binary values or
hexadecimal values (Figure 6.11).
The binary data monitor display lets you manipulate one word at a time by
displaying each bit using binary digits. The hexadecimal monitor display lets
you manipulate 4 digits which represents word values. The industrial terminal
can automatically convert your data from one number system to the other when
the alternate display is selected.
Three sections divide the data monitor display. They are identified as
(Figure 6.11):
Header: located at the top of the screen and contains information pertaining
to its corresponding file instruction. For example: counter, file, word
addresses, and file length.
File Section: located in the center of the screen and displays the data stored
in a file. The column labeled POSITION refers to each word’s position in
the file. FILE A DATA represents the original file, and FILE R DATA
represents the new file.
Command Buffer: located at the bottom center of the screen and is used to
enter or change file data. It is always displayed in the program mode.
