Creating Function Blocks
to Set/Monitor Bit Data This step registers and connects a function block that sets or monitors
another function block’s bit data from Monitor Plus. The Contact Distributor
(Block Model 201) and Internal Switch (Block Model 209) blocks must be used
because bit data is being set or monitored.
Bit data is set or monitored through the CPU Unit’s I/O memory and the Loop
Control Unit or Board’s internal memory. The direction of connections must be
correct to transfer the data properly.
Note It is not necessary to go through the Contact Distributor when using bits in a
sequence table or step ladder.
