SICK LSI Technical Description - 06/98
9.10 Monitor inputs and outputs
You can monitor and log the switching states of the LSI inputs
and outputs. You can save the data obtained to an ASCII file for
subsequent evaluation.
•
From the menu choose
LSI - Tools - I/O Monitor
.
This dialog box appears.
•
Click on Connect.
The states of the inputs and outputs are displayed in the top
section of the window, and at the same time are logged as ASCII
text.
If you are using the LSI on a vehicle and have connected
incremental sensors, here you can read-off and record the
speed data and the speed difference between the two
incremental sensors during operation for example.
To terminate recording:
•
Click on Stop. The connection to the LSI is cut and
recording is terminated.
Change interval for recording:
•
Click on Options and set the interval as required.
Save data:
•
Click on Save As and save the gathered data to an ASCII
file for subsequent evaluation.
Terminate monitoring of inputs and outputs:
