2.2.2.4 IIOT Reports
The reports settings allow to define which data the reports will contain and to set up where the reports are
stored on.
The reports are saved as XML files on the server under a folder with the same name as the inspection program.
These XML files can be viewed with the help of a web browser. The visualization can be modified by editing the
XSL file
style/report.xsl and the CSS file style/report.css . If a folder named style already exists under the given
root path, this folder will be copied instead of a new one being automatically generated. For further information
regarding XSL and CSS files, please consult other sources.
