Chapter 4 Quick Start<br />

4.6.3 Connection Test<br />

After a program is downloaded to a PLC, users can monitor the execution status of the PLC through<br />

<strong>ISPSoft</strong>. There are two monitoring modes that <strong>ISPSoft</strong> provide. One is the device monitoring mode,<br />

and the other is the program monitoring mode.<br />

Monitoring mode<br />

Description<br />

<strong>User</strong>s can monitor the statuses of the devices in the PLC through<br />

the monitoring table. In this mode, <strong>ISPSoft</strong> only needs to update the<br />

Device monitoring mode statuses of the devices. The present program in <strong>ISPSoft</strong> does not<br />

need to be the same as the program in the PLC.<br />

In this mode, the operating status of the program is displayed in the<br />

program editing window. As a result, the present program in <strong>ISPSoft</strong><br />

Program monitoring mode must be the same as the program in the PLC.<br />

*. The device monitoring function can be enabled independently. However, if the program monitoring function is<br />

enabled, the device monitoring function is also enabled.<br />

After users click Online Mode on the PLC menu, or on the toolbar, the online monitoring<br />

function will be enabled. The system will also enable the device monitoring mode and the program<br />

monitoring mode.<br />

In the online monitoring mode, users can view the present scan time, the communication status, and<br />

the status of the PLC in the status bar in <strong>ISPSoft</strong>.<br />
