constant update of the monitor with information from the Regent.

Monitor Variable Dialog Box

The MODBUS Variable Dialog Box (see Figure 10) is essentially the same
as that used in the editor, except that you cannot make any changes to the
variable definition, and the current value of each variable is displayed in a
separate field.
