Save Selections
By clicking on Save Selections, the user can save the specific parameters that have been added to the Watch Window. Once the selections
have been saved, the Restore Selections button can be used to monitor all the same parameters the next time the user opens the Watch
Window. Therefore, if there is a list of helpful diagnostic parameters the user wishes to see when online, those specific parameters can be
saved and recalled in the Watch Window at any time. The settings can be saved in the default file named "fm3watch.wch" or the user can
create their own file. Setup the parameter that will be displayed in the Watch Window, enter the file name in the Selection File text box, then
click the Save Selections button.
Restore Selections
By clicking on the Restore Selections button, the Watch Window will be filled with the list of parameters that were last saved using the Save
Selections button.
Select Defaults
The Select Defaults button adds the most commonly used parameters to the Watch Window.
Select I/O
The Select I/O button will add the drive digital inputs and outputs to the Watch Window.
Not Moving?
The Not Moving? button will load the watch window with a list of predefined parameters (shown in the following table) that will give an
indication why the motor is not moving.
