SO monitor
Name on/off
Save name Reload name
Check name
I/O name entry field
ON/OFF button
Function
Name on/off Shows/hides the name.
Save name Sends the name that is entered in the name entry field to the controller.
Reload name Loads the name from the controller, updating the indication of the name entry field.
Check name Checks whether the entered I/O name conforms to the prescribed rules.
ON/OFF button
Switches the bit output on/off.
However since SO00-07 and SO10-17 are dedicated bit outputs that indicate the status of the
controller, they cannot be switched on/off. Similarly, DO output (DO00-07 and DO10-17)
cannot be switched on/off.
Name entry field
Enters the I/O name.
However since SO00-07 and SO10-17 are dedicated bit outputs that indicate the status of the
controller, name entry is not possible. Similarly, DO output (DO00-07 and DO10-17) does not
allow name entry.
For details on the rules for I/O names, refer to "I/O name entry field" in the preceding "
n
SI
monitor (Detail screen)."
CAUTION
• In order to switch SO or DO on/off, the programming box must release control authority, and the controller must
be in auto mode.
• SO00-07, SO10-17, DO00-07, and DO10-17 are dedicated bit outputs that indicate the status of the controller,
and therefore cannot be changed.

SOW monitor
Display unit
Function
Display unit Displays port values in hexadecimal or decimal.
Tip
The SOW2-15 output values can be updated to desired values by rewriting the numerical value in the text box
during communication with the controller.
As SOW0 and 1 are dedicated outputs, their values cannot be changed.
As SIW is an external input value, it cannot be changed to an arbitrary value.
