Device diagnostics: User log file
With the Userlog file, you can store your own text strings in the RT system. This is necessary,
for example, when changes, which are to be documented, are made in the SIMOTION system
on a plant which has already been commissioned.
Changes can be written in the SIMOTION SCOUT. These are loaded to the ROM of the target
device. When required, the text strings can be read out again. The text editor for the Userlog
file is integrated as a tab in the device diagnostics snap-in. This function is only available in
online mode.
