Communication Test

When configuring a Driver, users can perform a test procedure to check whether its values are correct and being updated with no problems. When clicking an I/O Driver, the Activate Driver Activate Driver option can be used.

Thus, the specified Driver is loaded and its variable values can be viewed in each I/O Tag's Value field on its View. In case there is an I/O Tag with its AllowRead property set to False, or even with no value to be reported, this row appears in gray.

When an I/O Tag contains communication errors, its row turns into red, and in case it displays no problems, its row turns into blue. To interrupt this monitoring process, right-click an I/O Driver again and select the Deactivate Driver Deactivate Driver option.
