Hello,
When I’am using function blocks in LD i can see value of all inputs and outputs, even those to which I have no variables assigned. I can can also add such input/output to the watch list:

Hi Konrad.
This is a good question. It could be solved if the WATCH window had the ability to add a variable by typing the name of the varable, and/or selecting it from a drop-down list. But I don’t see any way to do that, or any other way to do what you want.
I asked the PLCnext Engineer support team, and here’s what they said:
this is not possible and is also not described in IEC 61131. The customer must link the output variable with a variable here.(ref: #234508)
