4.6.2 Structure of the Event Buffer DB (EVENT_BUFFER)
Function
In order to save and perform further work on the event buffer, it can be stored in a
DB (EVENT_BUFFER) on the MMC. For archiving purposes, for example, you can
retentively store the status of the control process at any time. This is achieved by
selecting the corresponding special screen on the C7-613 or via the job
compartment at the FB “HMI API”.
The “EVENT_BUFFER” DB is created by means of the UDT 16 with the “unlinked”
property.
