12.4 Monitor IEC objects
IEC objects are used primarily by experts.
This tab in the generic device editor lists "objects" that make it possible to
access the device from the IEC application. In online mode, it serves as a
monitoring view for the settings for the Ethercat gateway itself.
In online mode, you can use the IEC object table as a monitoring view. It will
also show the current value, the address, and the comments for the function
block tags on the channel, as well as provide the option to write and force
values.
