NET ENI Event Log Values 

The NET ENI Event Log Values page is a scratch pad where the PLC can write log values.  Up to 50 data 
strings can be displayed here by writing to Node 204 at element 0, with the newest event log displayed 
at the top.  Either a string write to Node 205 or a click on the 

Clear Event Log

 button will clear the 

buffer.  If event log is full and a new event is received, the new event will overwrite the oldest event in 
the list.
