In the <FilePath> tag, adapt the path and file name for the file in which the alarm log is stored
persistently:
<CONFIGURATION>
<Protocol>
<Filters>
<FilePath type="QString" value="$(HMI_INSTALL_DIR)user/
sinumerik/hmi/ log/alarm_log/slaepp_" />
</Filters>
</Protocol>
</CONFIGURATION>
● Path
Environment variables can also be incorporated in the path, e.g. for the installation directory:
$(HMI_INSTALL_DIR).
● File name
A 4-digit number in the value range 0000 to 0009 and the file extension "hmi" are
automatically added by default to the specified file name during operation. The number is
automatically increased when:
– The file has reached the maximum size (DiskCare = 0), or
– The specified period has elapsed (DiskCare > 0).
Older files are deleted.
● Number of logs
– The number of stored logs can be changed via MaxFileNumbers between 2 and 9999
(default: 10).
Example: Switching off existing filters
To switch off the existing Siemens filter - without overwriting the filter - proceed as follows:
1. An "empty" filter switches off all previously set filters.
Knowledge of the filter designation is not required.
2. For the effect of the filters, the order in which they are set is important:
siemens → addon → oem → user
Example of the filtering of alarms 700000 to 700010, 700500 to 700599, and the part program
messages (CLEARINFO = 15):
<CONFIGURATION>
<Protocol>
<Filters>
<Filter_00 value="" type="QString"/>
<Filter_01 value="CLEARINFO NOT 15 AND AlarmID LOWER 700000"
type="QString"/>
<Filter_02 value="CLEARINFO NOT 15 AND AlarmID HIGHER 700010
AND AlarmID LOWER 700500" type="QString"/>
