The CX-Process Monitor Plus is Support Software that monitors a process control system based on OMRON CS/CJ-series PLCs. Tag information, which is allocated in the monitor/control program in the Loop Controller, can be allocated to dynamic elements in a Control Screen. Flexible screens can be created inexpensively and easily to achieve Easy Monitoring of PLC-based process control. The various functions of the Graphic and Trend Screens have been improved in the version 2.0 upgrade.

Graphic Functions

Graphic elements, such as tanks and pumps, and drawing functions can be used to easily and flexibly create Graphic Screens. Fixed elements such as text, lines, and ellipses have been added, along with images, screen jumps, and faceplate pop-ups. Graphic elements, images, and objects can be shown or hidden based on data value. Graphic colors can be changed based on tag values and graphics can be grouped.

CX-Process Monitor Plus Functions

Various Screen Functions

A Wide Variety of Screens Is Available, and PLC-based Process Control Systems Can Be Constructed Flexibly and Inexpensively.

The CX-Process Monitor Plus can be used to import tag data (CSV file format) of the function blocks in a Loop Controller, and easily create screens such as Control Screens (on-site instrument images), Trend Screens, Graphic Screens, and Annunciator Screens.

Control Screens

Up to eight tags can be allocated. By allocating tags, it is possible to display faceplates based on the function. The loop status can be monitored and controlled in the faceplate.

Trend Screens

Control Block values such as the SP and MV can be displayed as a trend graph. There are three kinds of trends: realtime trends, historical trends, and batch trends. And up to 8 trends can be displayed in one Trend Screen. The collected data can be saved automatically or manually in CSV format. The defined trend points can be changed, deleted, or added offline.

Alarm Log Screens

The Alarm Log can be displayed in historical order. Alarms resulting from deviation alarms or bit status can also be displayed in the Alarm Log, in addition to the Control Block's HH, H, L, and LL alarms. Operation Log Screens are also available to sequentially display values manipulated from Control Screens, Tuning Screens, or Graphic Screens.

Tuning Screens

Tuning Screens display the parameters that can be tuned in faceplates and trend graphs displaying the PV, SP, or MV. Parameters can be adjusted while monitoring operation in the trend graph in 1-second intervals.

Graphic Screens

Dynamic symbols (elements that change with the tag's value), such as valves, pumps, and numerical values, can be allocated freely. Lines, rectangles, and ellipses can also be drawn, the color of those elements can be changed, and the elements can be made to flash. Static symbols or bitmap images created in standard graphics software can be read as images and displayed.

Other Screens

Other helpful screens are provided, such as System Monitor Screens, Annunciator Screens, and Operation Guide Message Screens. System Monitor Screens can display the status of the CPU and Loop Controller as well as the error status of Blocks. Annunciator Screens can display up to 16 alarm displays per screen. Operation Guide Message Screens can display messages that were registered in advance by the user.
