Device trace / function generator
You can use the device trace to record and evaluate parameters as well as system and program
variables.
The device trace for system variables is mainly used to analyze time-synchronous sequences
in the real-time system.
An automatic multiple trace is available as of SINAMICS V4.6. It can be used to trigger a
recording automatically according to the trigger conditions. The measurement is stored as a
YDB file (SIMOTION) or ACX file (SINAMICS) in a ring buffer on the memory card. At least
five measurements can be stored in the ring buffer.
You can parameterize the multiple trace on the Trace tab at Save to device (memory card).
Program variables can be traced in order to find logical errors in the execution system or in
user programs. For this purpose, rather than a time-triggered measuring task, an event-
triggered measuring task in the RT system can be used. The event that causes the
measurement recording is the execution of a specific code position in the user program by the
Diagnostics
