PLC Controlled Options

The PLC controller can control and monitor certain functions in the
PanelView terminal if you enable and assign a control address. The value
in the control address determines how the function operates on the
PanelView screen.

To set PLC controlled options, choose Options from the File menu. There
are eight options that can be enabled or disabled in this menu. The first
three provide information to the PLC controller, while the rest are
controlled by the PLC controller:

Time and Date to PLC Controller

Current Screen Number to PLC Controller

Screen Print Active to PLC Controller

PLC Controlled Audio

PLC Controlled Alarm Relay

PLC Controlled Screen Number

PLC Controlled Screen Print

PLC Controlled Time and Date

By default, all these options are Disabled. Highlight the option you want to
configure, press Enter, choose Enabled and press Enter again to open the
PLC address menu. Then define the PLC address for that option.
