You can have a real-time numeric display of data stored in the word address specified here. to indirectly specify the Monitor Word Address, in the [Address Type] list select [Address] or [Device Type Address].

Address

Indirectly designates to the device specified in [Base Address].

Base Address/Offset Value Specification Address

The [Base Address] becomes the standard indirectly designated address.

In [Offset Value Specification Address], set the address that stores the offset value from the [Base Address].

For example, when you indirectly specify [Monitor Word Address] D35

[Base Address] = D10

[Offset Value Specification Address] = D100

The data in [Offset Value Specification Address] is handled as the offset value from the [Base Address].

The [Base Address] (D10) is added to the [Offset Value Specification Address] (D100)'s data, which is "25", and the resulting address D35's data "40" displays.

If the [Base Address] + [Offset Value] operation results in overflowing digits (more than 16 bit), the correct Monitor Word Address cannot be requested.In this case the Monitor Word Address will be undefined.

Bin/BCD

Choose the type of data stored in the [Offset Value Specification Address] from [Bin] or [BCD].

Device Type Address

Indirectly designates both the device and address.

Device/PLC

When [Address Type] is [Device Type Address], select which device/PLC's address to indirectly designate.

Device Specification Start Address

Input the start address of the word address to specify the Display Address in [Device Specification Start Address].Store the Address Mode in [Device Specification Start Address].Address Mode is the mode to determine if the Device Address is for Internal or External (PLC) Device.Store the Device Code and the Address Code in the three Words following [Device Specification Start Address].The word address specified with the Device Code and the Address Code will be displayed.

For example, when you indirectly specify [Monitor Word Address] CN35

[Device Specification Start Address] = D100

[Address Mode] = External (PLC) Device

[Device Code] = CN:0061

*1 Address Mode0: External (PLC) Device 1: Internal Device stores 0 in the above example.

*2 Refer to "GP-Pro EX Device Connection Manual" for information about device codes. to specify the internal device in the Address Mode, use device code 0x0000 for the LS device, and device code 0x0001 for the USR device.

The address designated by D100, D101, D102, and D103 is CN35. Its data, "40" displays.

If the indirectly-designated address is out of range or does not exist, a communication error will occur.An error can affect the screen update.When an error occurs, check the indirectly-designated data and write the correct value to the device/PLC address to restore the screen update.

On the [Basic] tab's Extended screen, when you set [Address Type] to [Address] or [Device Type Address], and set the [Input/Display]'s [Input Specification] and [Display Specification] to [Address], the address that stores the max/min values for the Input Range/Display Range will be automatically allotted to the addresses following the Monitor Word Address.

Specify Input/Display Range

Specify an input/display range and [Monitor Word Address] data will automatically convert to correspond with the input and display range. The resulting numeric values can display.(Display relative values)

For example,

Data Type

Select the type of data to be displayed.

Bit Length	Data Type
16 bit	Dec, Hex, Oct, Bin, BCD
32 bit	Dec, Hex, Bin, BCD, Float

Bit Length

Specify the address' valid bit length from 1 to 16.

Selectable only when [Data Type] is specified as [16 Bits].

Indirect Area Specification

If [Input Specification] and [Display Specification] are both [Address], choose the indirect designation method from [Individual Settings] or [Area After Display Address] for the word addresses that will store the Input Range and Display Range's upper/lower limit value.

If either [Input Specification] or [Display Specification] is set to [Constant], the setting will be fixed as [Individual Settings].

Individual Settings

Specify the value or word address for [Min] and [Max] individually.

Area After Display Address

In the [Basic] tab, the input and display ranges are stored in consecutive addresses that follow the [Monitor Word Address], for the Input Range Max value, Input Range Min value, Display Range Min value, and Display Range Max value.

When [Indirect Area Specification] is set to [Area After Display Address], the min/max values for the input/display range will be as follows:

[Base Address] = D10

[Offset Value Specification Address] = D100

[Monitor Word Address] = D35

[Input Specification] = Address

[Display Specification] = Address

Input Range

Input Specification

Choose how the input range's max and min values are specified.

Constant

Specify a set constant as the Min/Max.(Direct Specification)

Address

Specify the address where the Min/Max values are stored.(Indirect Specification)

Sign +/-

Specifies whether input data will be able to handle negative numeric data.

None

Only positive numeric data.

2's Complement

Negative numbers are handled with 2's complement.

Negative numbers are handled using MSB (most significant bit).

Display Range

Display Specification

Choose how to specify the maximum and minimum values.

Constant

Specify a set constant as the Min/Max.(Direct Specification)

Address

Specify the address where the Min/Max values are stored.(Indirect Specification)

Round Off

When displaying data, select whether fractions get rounded off or truncated.

Display Sign

Set to display negative numbers.

This can be set when the [Data Type] is [Dec].

For example, when writing "-123"

-123 is written

Input Range/Display Range

Min. Value/Max. Value

Select the input range and display range for the numeric display data.

If [Input Specification] or [Display Specification] is [Constant], you can input a min/max value.

If [Address] is set, specify the word address where the min/max value will be stored.
