5. Decide on the data to be monitored and manipulated by CX-Process
Monitor.
In this example, the data of two Basic PID blocks is monitored and
manipulated on CX-Process Monitor.
So, specify each of the Basic PID blocks as the source designation
Control block addresses in the 1-Block Send Terminal to Computer block
(Block Model 403).
Bas ic PID
<Bloc k Model 011>

Preparing Function Block Data on CX-Process Tool
1, 2, 3…
1. Set up and start CX-Process Tool.
2. Set the System Common block data.
Set the specifications common to each function block in the System
Common block (Block Model 000). The ITEMs in this block must be set as
the initial settings when the Loop Control Unit is to be used.
In this example, set as follows:
Set the operation cycle in the System Common block to 0.5 sec.
Set the START mode at power ON to Hot start (1).
Set the LCU number of the Loop Control Unit to be used to 0.
Set the leading address of the Data Memory for the Node Terminals to
D16020.
