Snapshot Explorer
The snapshot explorer simplifies administration and enables printing existing snapshots and
reports. These reports can be printed or exported as an image, text, PDF document, or diag-
nostic module snapshot file (DMS) file.
Note
DMS is a file format for data exchange created by Pepperl+Fuchs.
2 different templates can be selected: A clearly arranged default template and a compact tem-
plate that contains the same information using less space. You can launch the report using Mic-
®
rosoft
