Which products are affected?
ESP-DDS1-x (Global Drive PLC Developer Studio version 1.4)
ESP-DDS2-x (Global Drive PLC Developer Studio version 2.x)
What happens?
By means of the Parameter monitor (register card Resources), codes can be monitored and changed online by the PLC target system.
Code number, descriptive text, value and unit of each code are displayed in the Parameter monitor in the form of a table. However, the columns for codes and descriptive text are not wide enough, so that the number and the descriptive text of some codes cannot be read completely. The entries can only be read completely if the width of the column is changed. However, this change in column width is not saved when closing the Parameter monitor, i. e. when opening the parameter monitor, the column width is reset to its standard width.
When does the problem occur?
The response mentioned above always occurs when opening the Parameter monitor.
Possible diagnostics?
None.
Short-term measures/recommendations?
Despite this function restriction, the Parameter monitor is to be closed when not being required any more. Otherwise monitoring variables can be considerably delayed.
Evaluation:
Due to this function restriction, it may be required to adjust the column width when opening the Parameter monitor. The function restriction does not affect monitoring and modifying codes.
