Application Analysis / Performance Monitor
A visualisation application should always be designed in advance with special
care being taken to make best use of bandwidth. This design must be closely
linked with the PLC program design so the two processes complement each
other. Visualisation design should never be an after-thought
CX-Supervisor comes with two utilities to help you monitor how healthy your
application is while you are designing and testing it:
• Application Analysis performs a validation of the application and checks
for communications performance (theoretical), error conditions such as
use of non-existent points, use of obsolete functions such as Sleep or
DDE and provides an overall summary of the application. In some cases,
it will also offer suggestions on how to resolve some of the problems
found.
• Performance Monitor works during the runtime to check the actual
performance figures and provides analysis based on how your application
actually works with your network and PLC program.
16-1 Application Analysis
An application can be analysed using the 'Analyse Application…' option from
the main 'Project' menu in the Development package. After the application has
been analysed the following dialog box will be displayed.
