2.1.4 Setting the storage location for the alarm log
Function
Two different methods are available saving the alarm profile on the hard disk. The
application and the disk load must be taken into account when selecting which method to
use. The required entries are made in the MBDDE.INI file.
Writing to alarm files always places a load on the same hard disk region. Various methods
can be chosen with the following control options.
There are a number of strategies for reducing the load on the disk. Multiple log files can be
maintained in parallel on the disk. With the multiple file strategy, the next file is selected each
time the HMI is booted. This reduces the load on the disk hardware, both in the data area as
well as the directory information area. In addition, this strategy detects physical disk errors in
the data area on startup and avoids them by reallocating memory space.
The multiple file strategy can also be selected using the following entry in the file mbdde.ini.
[PROTOCOL]

The MBDDE server controls the alarm log in the memory. The alarm

"Diagnostics" of if the key <Alarm Cancel> is pressed.
The data is written to the log file immediately.
