Viewing and Clearing the Local Log Table
The only way to view and clear the data in the PNC
’s Local Log table is through the Command Line
Interface.
Log data can be viewed from the Command Line Interface using the
log
or
show log
command.
The local log table can only be cleared from the Command Line Interface using the
clear log
command, which requires Modify level access. Clearing the RX3i CPU fault tables or
restarting the PNC module does NOT clear the local log table.
If the PNC
module’s Local Log table overflows, new entries overwrite the oldest entries,
which are
lost
. If that happens, the
log
or
show log
command indicates the number of entries that have been
lost. The count of lost entries is cleared when the local log table is cleared.
PROFINET Controller Local Log Display
The first illustration below shows a typical display using the
log
command. The
Loc
column identifies
the device associated with the log entry by its Device Number. Proficy Machine Edition assigns a
unique Device Number for each Remote IO Device. The Device Number 000 identifies the PNC
itself.
