When intermittent faults occur (such as a random E-stop drop out), standard monitoring is too slow to catch the culprit signal. Navigate to the menu and select Signal Trace . Define your Trigger Condition (e.g., when X0.0 turns OFF). Select the target addresses you want to monitor.

Allows multi-window schematic drafting of relay-style contacts and coils. Function Block (FB) Support:

Newer FANUC hardware supports "Function Blocks" (FB) that allow for modular programming. Version 9.5 is required to unlock and edit these advanced structures.

Locating a specific I/O signal (like an emergency stop X address or a diagnostic G address) is significantly faster. The cross-reference tool instantly builds an interactive list of every instance an address is read or written throughout the entire project structure. Step-by-Step Programming Workflow

Force bits (with caution) to test solenoids and relays without needing to trigger the entire machine cycle. Conclusion
