NOTE:
The PID/Data monitor function is used for monitoring the calculated value. Therefore, if the monitored value of the output parts is not within the specification, inspection of the monitored value of input parts corresponding to applicable output part control is necessary. In addition,. because the system does not display output part malfunction as abnormality in the monitored value, it is necessary to inspect the output part individually.
