Description of the "Upload PLC data" function
Using a control monitor, the diagnostic action "Upload PLC data" permits some or
all PLC data blocks to be uploaded onto the server upon a trigger event.
Notice
The PLC data blocks are available on the server without a specific format.
Precisely one contiguous range of the same data block can be selected for
uploading for each control monitor.
To display the DB content, the data from the "Machine events" menu must be
exported and saved. A hexadecimal editor or byte-by-byte conversion in Excel is
recommended for visualization purposes.
With data block contents that change dynamically between the trigger event and
the completion of the transfer to the server, the limited bandwidth of the
communication channel to the PLC does not allow to guarantee that the states
are from a single cycle.
