Observe Variables
This function can only be used when the NetLink is Online and the RFC-
1006 mode is used. The activation is described in chapter »8«.
Parameters for monitoring variables:
MPI Address
Number of Variables
No.
Address Area
Address Index*
Result Value
Display Format
Description
To show the desired values the buttons »1x fetch«, for a refresh once,
or »cyclic fetch«, for a permanent online request, are available.
With »Save Configuration« the created mask including all set variables
and their descriptions can be stored in the ACCON-NetLink-PRO
compact.
The refresh rate is set to 0.5 seconds. If several stations use this
function from the TCP/IP side, then there is always only one connection
resource reserved in the ACCON-NetLink-PRO compact. During the
additional data exchange via MPI/PROFIBUS the »Observe Variables«
function has the lowest priority. Thus the refresh rate in the web
interface is dependent from the parallel bus load.

With the help of the dropdown menu
an active MPI/PROFIBUS address
(S7-CPU) is selected.
For a better overview the number of
the desired variables can be selected
between 1 and 10.
Continuous numeration.
The following items are supported: AB,
AW, AD, EB, EW, ED, MB, MW, MD,
DBB, DBW, DBD, Counter and Timer.
