– Using SIMOTION IT web server;

The web server also offers the option of fetching diagnostic data online.

– Using a service selector switch

● Backing up while the module is starting up; for details, see Section Procedure for backing

up during startup (Page 205)

– Using a service selector switch

– Controlling diagnostic data creation using an INI file stored on the CF card

Note

Ethernet or PROFINET interface is required for the SIMOTION IT web server. For

this reason, the web server is only available on the SIMOTION D410 PN, not the

D410 DP.

7.2.2.2 Non-volatile SIMOTION data (retain data)

In addition to the diagnostic data, non-volatile SIMOTION data (retain data) is also saved on

the CompactFlash Card. You can use these in situations where the non-volatile SIMOTION

data has not been saved on the CompactFlash Card using the _savePersistentMemoryData

system function, and you wish to restore the non-volatile SIMOTION data after a CPU has

been replaced.

Note

While the non-volatile SIMOTION data are stored as a "PMEMORY.XML" backup file in the

"...USER/SIMOTION" directory using the _savePersistentMemoryData system function,

backing up diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data involves storing data in the "...

\USER\SIMOTION\HMI\SYSLOG\DIAG" directory.

7.2.2.3 Procedure for backing up during operation

Procedure

The advantage of backing up diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data during

operation

is that enhanced diagnostic information via HTML pages and TO alarm information

is available.

Data are backed up:

● Using "Diagnostics > Diagnostics Files" in SIMOTION IT web server; see Section Back up

diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data via the web server (Page 211)

● Using a service selector switch (see description below)
