Apply monitored values
To apply all actual values or only the values that are marked as "set value" tags in a data
block, follow these steps:

2. Start the monitoring by clicking the "Monitor all" button.
The "Monitor value" column is shown in the table. This shows the actual data values.
3. On the toolbar, click "Snapshot of the monitor values".
The actual monitor values are applied in the "Snapshot" column. Note here that the
monitor values can originate from various program cycles.
The following options exist to apply the actual values from the snapshot as start value in the
offline version of the data block.
● Apply individual start value
To apply an individual value as start value, select the value in the "Snapshot" column.
Use the "Copy" and "Paste" commands from the shortcut menu to copy the values and
paste them in the "Start value" column.

value" column" button in the toolbar.

"Start value" column" button in the toolbar. The selected setpoint values from the column

block in the project tree. In the shortcut menu, select the commands "Snapshot of monitor
values" and "Apply monitor values as start values" > "Only retain values".
