Software for device monitoring
You can find information on the monitoring software and its documentation under:
● SIMATIC IPC DiagBase (Page 85) for monitoring and alarm output locally on the device
● SIMATIC IPC DiagMonitor (Page 85) for monitoring and alarm output via the network
SIMATIC DiagBase or SIMATIC DiagMonitor also controls the status displays of the IPC,
