Tim,

That sounds like a great status display.  Please put
me on the list for copies of the scripts and display
graphics.

At my last plant I built a station status display for
the CPs and AB Stations that I used for monitoring
station loading that I was happy with.  It was very
site specific, but easy to implement.  It was
basically a table with station names down the left, a
button to turn on/off active data collection, and
columns with I/O SCAN, TOTAL CONTROL CYCLE, OM SCAN,
STATION IDLE TIME, FREE MEMORY, CONTROL OVERRUNS, OM
OVERRUNS.  I also had a button that would run a script
that generated a report on station loading with that
same info and the date overruns were last reset, and
would then reset all the overruns to zero.

Regards,

Kevin FitzGerrell
