memory cannot be monitored.
When checking the input state from the buffer memory, monitor the corresponding buffer memory area with "Device/Buffer Memory
Batch" of GX Works2.
*2 For the input terminal (external terminal) of an external input block and the output terminal (external terminal) of an external output block,
the latest ON/OFF state of each terminal is displayed even while the hardware logic is stopped.
For other items, monitor values are not updated while the hardware logic control is stopped.

as follows.
• Off: Off state or Low state
• On: On state or High state
When the monitoring has stopped, the values immediately before the monitoring stop are displayed.
