Description

  • This program illustrates how to configure a DLOG function to automatically log data once per minute in TelePACE.
  • The DLOG function is configured to log analog input registers 30001, 30002, 30003 and a time stamp. The function's grab (log) data input is triggered by the output coil of a PULM (one-minute pulse) function. Control Microsystem's SCADALog application software can then be utilized to easily read the logged data from the controller. The GETL function can also be used to transfer logged data into I/O database (Modbus-addressed) registers for access by other host devices that utilize Modbus protocol.
  • The Register Editor dialog has been pre-configured to display all pertinent registers used in this program.
  • The controller type has been pre-selected as SCADAPack.
  • The Register Assignment has been pre-configured with the SCADAPack 5601 I/O Module.
  • Refer to the "Ladder Logic Function Reference | Ladder Logic Function Reference | Ladder Logic Functions" section of the "TelePACE User and Reference Manual" for information on the DLOG and PULM functions.
