Here’s how to set and optimize the event logging parameters:

Event Logging Activation
Toggle the event logging function on or off to start tracking activities.

Filename
Specify the desired log file name. The system automatically adds a ‘.txt’ extension for consistency.

Storage Path
Designate where the log file will be stored—options include internal memory, a USB stick, or a network drive. Use the Select Path function during setup to choose your preferred directory.

Maximum File Size
Set the maximum log file size in kilobytes. Once the file hits this limit, it will automatically close, rename, and a new file will instantly open to continue logging.

Loggable Events
Choose which events to log by toggling the relevant parameters. Ensure at least one parameter is active:

• Controller Start: Logs when the control system is initiated.
• Controller Stop: Tracks when the control system is halted.
• Step Change: Logs transitions to the next bend step.
• Product Complete: Marks the completion of the bend program.
• Mode Change: Captures when a different mode is selected.
• Error Message: Records the occurrence of error messages.

Optimizing these parameters helps streamline your production management, enabling better oversight and efficiency within your operations.

Explanation

One line in the log file can look as follows:

<log time=”20100129T122021.477″ event=”mode” mode=”1″/>

or:

<log time=”20100129T122034.464″ event=”start” prod=”EVENTLOG” step=”1″ stock=”32767″/>

Each line is one event, with a few possible attributes. The time is always listed, followed by the nature of the event.

The time is listed as follows:

log time=<date>T<time>

The date is shown in the order year-month-date, the time is shown in the order hours-minutes-seconds-milliseconds. These two fields are separated by the T character. The nature of the event is indicated by a keyword. Depending on its nature, one or more attributes are listed.

Each attribute is indicated by a keyword. The following keywords are possible:

One line in the log file takes approximately 50 Bytes, so with a file size of 10 KiloBytes it is possible to log about 200 events. This can vary, since the description length of one event can vary.

If a large file is necessary to record a lot of events, it could be wise to use an external USB stick or a network location to store the file. The maximum file size supported by the control is 1 megabyte (1000 kilobytes).
