The Display PLC status form, normally invoked using menu item PLC – Display Status…, is a tool for
checking the status of the PLC runtime kernels when online.
This form is displayed automatically when the system is online and menu item PLC – Synchronize … is

undefined state.

When the form is invoked by the PLC – Synchronize command it is only possible to close the form when
the state of all PLC:s is PLC is running. During synchronization a progress bar is shown.
