In your PLC logic's first OB's first network, toggle those two bits. At the very last OB's last network, add a toggle to those bits. Another approach is to create a diagnostic routine that runs when an enabled and configured problem is detected - other than RUN->STOP. The documentation on that is very poor (in my opinion), butit is manageable toget something functional with little PLC overhead. If you have a counter in your PLC, you can simply display a status indicating that counter's value. When the PLC crashes, the counter will stop incrementing. You can display something different ifvalue does not change. Or, you can wait for V11 of the TIA Portal and it will be easier.
