Illustration
The debug screen displays the value and state of each of the selected module's channels in real time. It is also used to access the channel commands (forcing of the input/output value, Set/Reset an output, etc.).
The debug screen looks like this:

Function
Indicates the reference of the selected module and its physical position in the PLC.
Module zone Enables the user to select: l parameter type: l l
Configuration ,
Debugging (diagnostics), can only be accessed in online mode.
l channel type (inputs or outputs) displayed, if the module in question contains both inputs and outputs or the position (even or odd) for 32 channel modules.
Displays the designation of the selected module.
Provides direct access to: l l the Global unforcing function for channels, the module diagnostics, if the module is faulty (shown by the indicator integrated in the diagnostics access button, DIAG , which turns red).
l the Reactivation of outputs function ( for static output modules).
