Hi All,
I have written an indexed program that controls 8 identical machines. Each machine has an identical DB which contains a map of all its inputs, outputs and control flags (inputs and outputs are moved in and out of the DB at the start and end of the scan). Each DB is passed in turn (in a for-next loop) into the main program FB and it all works very well.
When I wrote the program it was on one machine - which I could monitor fine (when I got it going I simply increased the For - Next loop to include all the other machines)
My question is... now that I have 8 machines running through all the same FB's and FC's one after another on the same scan – all using different data, is it possible to monitor just one of them on its own? If I monitor an FC at the moment it will try and show eight different situations at the same time (if that makes sense)
Many thanks in advance
