Trace
The trace function allows recording up to 4 parameters of the controller. A trigger source is
available for this in the object dictionary. This allows selection of a maximum of 4 signal
sources. Two different types of recording are available:
Trace recorder: The parameter values are written to an internal buffer and can then be
read (see chap. 4.1, p. 36).
Trace logger: On request the parameter values are requested and read continuously
(see chap. 4.2, p. 39).
4.1
Trace recorder
The configuration and reading of data with the trace recorder is performed via the SDO.
The trace recorder is configured using the object 0x2370 in the OD.
The recorded data are read using the segmented SDO upload protocol. The object 0x2371 is
available in the OD for this purpose (see chap. 4.1.2, p. 38).
