Question

How can I get the logs from my MI HMI onto my PC?

*

Answer

Scripting commands exist called 'OutputAlarmLog' and 'OutputEventLog', these can be used to send the logs down the serial line, using a spare
port on the HMI. First the 'Open' command must be used to open the port.
The 'Close' command must be called following the operation. The PC needs to be running a terminal program such as 'Hyperterminal' (which comes with Windows), in order to receive the data and save it as a file. The data arrives in cvs (comma separated value) format, so it can easily be loaded into a spreadsheet.
