Tab 'Monitor'

Object: “Task Configuration”

In online mode, the tab shows the status of the tasks of the task configuration, as well as some current measurements of the cycles and cycle times. CODESYS updates the values in the same time interval as for the monitoring of values from the PLC.

The displayed values can be reset to ‎0‎ by means of the “Reset” context menu command.

“Task”	Task name (as defined in the task configuration)
“Status”	“Not created”: The task has not been started since the last update (especially for event tasks). “Generated”: The task is recognized in the runtime system, but not yet in operation. “Valid”: The task is operating normally. “Exception”: The task has produced an exception status.
“IEC-Cycle Count”	Number of cycles executed since starting the application where the IEC code was executed (`‎0‎` if the target system does not support the counter function)
“Cycle Count”	Number of executed cycles since logging in to the PLC It depends on the target system whether cycles are also counted where the application is not running. In these cases, the “Cycle Count” may be greater than the “IEC-Cycle Count”.
“Last Cycle Time (µs)”	Last measured cycle time [µs]
“Average Cycle Time (µs)”	Average cycle time over all cycles [µs]
“Max. Cycle Time (µs)”	Maximum measured cycle time over all cycles [µs]
“Min. Cycle Time (µs)”	Minimum measured cycle time over all cycles [µs]
“Jitter (µs)”	Current value of the periodic jitter [µs] Note: From CODESYS 3.5 SP11 to SP15, the peak-peak value of the periodic jitter is displayed. In earlier versions and in SP16 and later, the current value of the periodic jitter is displayed.
“Min. Jitter (µs)”	Minimum measured periodic jitter [µs]
“Max. Jitter (µs)”	Maximum measured periodic jitter [µs]
“Core”	Number of the processor core where the task is currently running Example: `‎2‎` Requirement: The controller is equipped with a multicore processor. If the CPU is not a multicore CPU, then the value `‎-1‎` is displayed here.
