You can set your IO config to receive the results of the DCS. The concrete settings depend on which part of the DCS you need specifically.
Rack 36 Slot 6 Start 1 in your DI for example will give you the results of the Cartesian Position Checks.
If your monitoring function doesn't need to be safety rated then you don't need to do anything with safe IO.
If you need to send out a safety rated signal then you must use safe io DCS outputs.
Start number is the DCS zone number.
Im trying to monitor using my Plc is there a way to use DO, I couldn't get it to work with DO using these settings
Interconnect DI like TomTom explained to your DO.
No, if it is disabled, you will not get feedback from that zone. You would need to create an identical CPC and make it a 'not stop' to monitor.
It looks like you are doing machine safety. If this is the case, and your CPC 3 is not being used for operator safety, I would make that zone a not stop and have the PLC monitor and issue an immediate stop or desired signal rather the robot control stop if it enters the press zone during the cycle.

Slightly off-topic: Is there a list of which rack has what function?
For DCS look at dcs manual, safe IO chapter. Rack 36 is dcs and that manual shows all slot numbers. For other IO see the sticky thread, under manuals, titled

Settings to make Fanuc programming easier (From all of us)
Where can I find that? I could not find it on the manual MAROCDCHK03101E
See chapter 5.1 (Safe I/O) of the manual. Information about Rack 36 can be found at the very end of the chapter.
