5.1.10 Forcing I/O Points from the Main Web Page
There is one feature available on the main web page that could be useful for checkout
but must be done with great care. Both input and output points can be forced to states
and values different from program generated values. Looking at the main web page,
it is possible to both read and write values for the 20 real I/O points and eight virtual
points. There is no issue with reading points
— only writing points. Just to the right of
the value field is a checkbox. If you hover your cursor over this checkbox, this tool
tip will display: Click to Force Channel. To change an input or output value, check
this box before making a value change. This override value will remain until the
checkbox is unchecked. The same can be done to outputs.
Caution: Use great care when forcing an input or output on a commissioned system
to avoid damage to equipment or process or injury to personnel.
