The own station monitor screen enables you to monitor the status of all the network lines connected to the own station.
A touch of the screen will guide you through various monitor screens to monitor the status of the own station and other stations on a network.
(2) Network information can be obtained from the own station monitor screen.
Dedicated monitor screens are available for each category of station classification, depending on the role that is played by the own station.
Network category: MELSECNET/B, MELSECNET (II) master station MELSECNET/B, MELSECNET (II) local station
MELSECNET/10, MELSECNET/H control station/ordinary station
MELSECNET/10, MELSECNET/H remote master station (Sample display) MELSECNET/B, MELSECNET (II) master station
(3) The status of other stations can be monitored on the other-station monitor screen.
The other-station monitor screen provides the following type of information on the status of other stations connected on a network:
• Communications status of each station
• Data link status of each station
• Parameters status of each station
• CPU action status of each station
• CPU RUN status of each station
• Loop status of each station
(Sample display) Other station monitor menu screen
Other station's communications status monitor screen
1.1.6 Features of the List editor function
Installation of the List editor function OS into the memory with the GT Designer2 allows for list edit of the sequence program in the ACPU.
The following shows features of the List editor function.
(1) Easy parameters and sequence program maintenance
Simple key operations allow checks, partial modifications, changes and additions of the parameters and the sequence program in the PLC CPU.
Without peripheral equipment other than the GOT, the sequence program can be simply edited.
Example of command change in the sequence program LD
OUT LD
X0 Y20 X1
LD MOV LD
X0 D0 X1
D1 Change
(2) Interlock with the ladder monitor function (only when A985/97*/960GOT is used) The list edit window can be started from the ladder monitor screen with a single touch. The list can be edited while viewing the ladder.
The list can also be displayed from the step line displayed on the ladder monitor.

1.1.7 Features of the motion monitor function
Installation of the motion monitor function OS or downloading of motion monitor data into the built-in memory of the GOT using GT Designer2 enables the servo monitoring and parameter setting of the motion controller CPU (Q172CPU, Q173CPU).
The following are the features of the motion monitor function.
(1) Various servo monitor data can be displayed on multiple monitor screens (refer to Section 23.3 for details)
The motion monitor function has multiple monitor screens, on which you can monitor servo data in a variety of patterns.
(Display examples)
Present Value Monitor Error List
• Monitors and displays the feed current values and actual current values of all running axes. (Refer to Section 23.3.3)
• Displays the history of errors that occurred on and after the leading edge of PLC ready (M2000). (Refer to Section 23.3.3)
Positioning Monitor Error List Designated-Axis
• Monitors the details of the positioning data set to any axis. (Refer to Section 23.3.5)
• Displays the latest errors that occurred on the specified axis. (Refer to Section 23.3.4)
