Display wall (2)

The display wall contains the monitors, error list, current OD values, properties, help and console.
Several tabs facilitate navigation in the display wall, in the user screen's upper right.

In the Monitoring tab, you combine either single or grouped monitors to track individu­al sys­tem behavior in real time.

  1. To set up a monitor: Co-click the tab Monitoring.
  2. In the context menu: Either create a new monitor via Add Monitor Module.
  3. Or fetch an existent one via Import Module.

The bottom part of the monitor display contains always the system monitor which shows the current device and connection status information.
OD Monitor: Lists all objects from the controller's dictionary, together with their current values. For updates: Click Read.

To save the list as a text file on the hard drive: Click Dump. Keep the text file with current values ready in case of support en­quiries.

Ypu can import an already saved dump file, compare it with the current OD and save it on another controller.
Help: Displays the description of the currently cho­sen element (OD object).
Console: Use this to quickly read/write.from/to the device's object dictionary.

Type <od index>:<od subindex> for read.

Type <od index>:<od subindex>=<value> for write.
