A monitor system is formed with a programmable controller for executing a user program, a data collecting unit connected to the programmable controller for collecting variable data of the programmable controller and a monitor device connected to the data collecting unit through a communication line. The functions of the system include that of storing a preliminarily defined virtual variable apart from the user program of the programmable controller and from the variable data of the programmable controller and a calculation formula using one or more real variables for obtaining the virtual variable, that of collecting real variable data in the stored calculation formula and any other real variables from the programmable controller, that of carrying out a calculation according to the stored calculation formula based on the collected real variable data, and that of displaying correspondence of the collected real variables and the result of the calculation as waveforms on a display device. Some of these functions are carried out by the data collecting unit, the rest being carried out by the monitor device.
