Diagnostics data
7.2 Diagnostic data and non-volatile SIMOTION data
Note
Use HTML pages if you wish to back up diagnostic data in plain-text format. HTML pages
enable user-friendly diagnostics. In addition to the standard SIMOTION IT web server pages,
you have the option of creating your own HTML pages (e.g. for the axis status or for machine
diagnostics). Customized diagnostics pages are particularly suitable for application problems,
as you can define the contents yourself.
7.2.3
Diagnostics via websites
In the "DIAGURLS.TXT" text file, located in the ...\USER\SIMOTION\HMI\SYSLOG\DIAG
directory, you can specify HTML files whose status will be stored on the CF card when
diagnostic data are created during operation. (For example, "devinfo.mcs" must be entered
for the "devinfo.htm" HTML page.)
Since the pages in question are stored together with their most up-to-date contents, this
enables the latest status information regarding the SIMOTION device, as well as the machine/
system, from the point at which diagnostic data were created (e.g. when the service selector
switch was activated) to be archived.
In addition to the standard SIMOTION IT web server pages, it is possible to store customized
pages. Information on creating pages of this type can be found in, for example, Utilities &
Applications.
