Finding Forced bits in Unity Pro?
When forcing bits in Schneider's Unity Pro XL software, we always map them to an animation table and verify that %SW108 count is equal to the quantity of forced bits listed in the table. If we forgot to include forced bits in the table, we are lost...

In configuration, double click CPU, go to animation, then click information. Here you can see if there is any forced bit in the system. If you double click that, it will open a new animation table showing all the forced bits.
