Description

Register Number

The PLC address to be monitored.

Minimum Register Value

The minimum data value of the controller address being monitored.

Maximum Register Value

The maximum data value of the controller address being monitored.

Minimum Entry Value

The minimum data value to be entered. When this value is
entered the minimum register value is entered to the defined
controller address.

Maximum Entry Value

The maximum data value to be entered. When this value is entered
the maximum register value is entered to the defined controller
address. The range defined by the minimum entry value and the
maximum entry value is proportionally scaled to the range of the
minimum and maximum register values. If both ranges are equal
then the scaling ratio is 1:1.

Low User Input Limit

The minimum entry value that an operator may enter. This value
must be within the range of the data format selected. If a value lower
than this is entered, the DTAM will display an “Input Error” screen
displaying the minimum and maximum entry limits.

High User Input Limit

The maximum entry value that an operator may enter. This value
must be within the range of the data format selected. If a value
higher than this is entered, the DTAM will display an “Input Error”
screen displaying the minimum and maximum entry limits.

Default Value

This parameter defines a default value that is displayed at the
entry address of the display. An entry of Z defines no default.
NONE appears in the window when Z is entered.
