Hi!
I've tried to write a logger function in Vijeo Designer to store data (results of PLC calculations and I/O values) on CF card (Magelis XBTG4330 panel). But it's not a good solution, because the amount of information stored is too small (had to overwrite files or lines inside a file).
Does anybody know if it's possible to create some PLC logger function and to write data to a card or external device (could be separate module standard for this type of PLC or possibly just another (could be Ethernet) device)? The data are first placed in PLC's internal %MW-locations and are ready to be stored on trigger bit which is set when all the calculations are done. Data to store: 10-20 %MW-words. One file can consist of f.ex. 100 sets of those. Then a new file is started. Filename/number (and dataset number within one file) could be incremented by PLC program.
A longer time (from minutes to days) is between those write operations (on trigger bit). Upload of the stored information to a PC could be done after one or several years of operation (i.e. it could be stored thousands of files by that time).
Thanks for any help!
