Log files

The log files, <yymmddnn>.log, hold data read from the PLC at intervals down to one second and commands/values sent from IGSS to the PLC.

Examples of file names:

• 17082701.log
• 17082702.log
• 17082703.log
• 17082704.log
• 17082705.log

Number of LOG files

While data collection is active:

• For configurations with less than 2,000 objects one log file per hour are created.
• For configurations with more than 2,000 objects, 16 log files per hour are created. These LOG files are named as follows:
  
  YYMMDDHH_#.log where # is the number of LOG data file. The first LOG file is not appended with the number.
  
  Examples:
  • 1^st LOG data file: 17112708.log
  • 2^nd LOG data file 17112708_1.log
  • 3^rd LOG data file 17112708_2.log
  • ...
  • 16^th LOG data file 17112708_15.log

The log files are saved in the Report subfolder of the configuration root folder.

If you want to save these files on a file server, you simply specify that location in the System Configuration form.

You can limit the number of log files that are saved on the Files tab in the System Configuration form.
