Data table monitor

How do I access the data table monitor?
In the
RSWho
, right-click a controller, and select
Data Monitor
 from the context menu.
Use RSLinx Classic data table monitor to view ControlLogix, PLC-5, SLC, and MicroLogix data. You can open a separate data table monitor for as many processors as needed. This procedure is called data monitoring. When you are monitoring your data, the information displays in either a data file list window or a data table window. Data monitoring allows you to:
  • Select data files to be viewed
  • View the data files in a grid format
    IMPORTANT:
    • The data table monitor is read-only. Values in the data files cannot be modified directly from the data monitor window. However, for PLC-5 and SLC controllers, elements can be copied to the clipboard and be read or written with DDE. Input and Output files are protected against writes with DDE.
    • For ControlLogix controllers, if you set the tags to read-only, values in the data files cannot be modified from neither the data monitor window nor the DDE.
