Important: While monitoring, the last executed rung that contains a
specific rung element determines the value displayed for that rung element
throughout the module. For example, if a rung element in rung 10 is set
“TRUE” but the same rung element is set “FALSE” in rung 200, it is
displayed as “FALSE” in both rungs.
While the monitor is active the following operator panel keys are available:
If you want to: Press this key on the operator panel:
move up or down one rung at a time. If the monitor is at the last
rung of a module, pressing the down cursor key will cause the
monitor to move to the top of the next module of the same type. If
the monitor is at the first rung of a module, pressing the up cursor
key will cause the monitor to move to the bottom of the previous
module of the same type. If the next module is not of the same
type (foreground/background) you will be prompted to answer if it
is okay to change module types.

jump to the beginning or end of the module or jump to the next or
previous module. If the next module is not of the same type
(foreground/background) you will be prompted to answer if it is
okay to change module types.

The search features of the search monitor utility allow you to search for a
specific section of your PAL program.
There are 5 different searches available. Most search operations (with the
exception of select rung and select module) all require a search string be
selected prior to performing the search. Once the search string is entered,
the search is performed by pressing the {FORWRD SEARCH} or
{REVRSE SEARCH} softkeys. All of these search types are accessed by
pressing the {SEARCH TYPE} softkey.

If the search fails to find the search string in the current module, it
proceeds in the direction you have specified and searches the next module.
If the next module is not of the same type (foreground module or
background module) the search monitor utility asks if its okay to change
module types. Answer yes to continue the search in the other module type.
Answer no to abort the search.
