To Create a Recipe Preset Register Monitor (OIT3100 and OIT4100 Series Only)
A Recipe Preset Register Monitor allows an operator to change the value of a Recipe
Preset (see Chapter 3: Stored Screens) without having to reconfigure the OIT. This
Register Monitor works in a manner similar to any other PLC Register Monitor. The
difference is that the register being monitored and changed is a Recipe Preset instead of
being a location in a PLC.
