Description
The system automatically generates the messages for
the system diagnostics and outputs these messages via
a programming device/PC, HMI device, the Web server
or the integrated display. System diagnostics information
is also available when the CPU is in STOP mode.
The Web server lets you access the CPU data by means
of a network. Evaluations, diagnostics, and modifications
are thus possible over long distances. Monitoring and
evaluation is possible without STEP 7; all you need is a
Web browser. Make sure that you take appropriate
measures (e.g. limiting network access, using firewalls)
to protect the CPU from being compromised.
Trace functionality supports you in troubleshooting
and/or optimizing the user program.
You record device tags and evaluate the recordings with
the trace and logic analyzer function. Tags are,
for example, drive parameters or system and user tags
of a CPU.
The device saves the recordings. You can read out and
permanently save the recordings with the configuration
system (ES), if required. The trace and logic analyzer
function is therefore suitable for monitoring highly
dynamic processes.
The trace record can also be displayed through the Web
server.
With OPC UA, you can exchange data via an open and
manufacturer-neutral communication protocol. The CPU
can act as an OPC UA DA server. The CPU acting as
the OPC UA server can communicate with OPC UA
clients.
The OPC UA Companion Specification allows methods
to be specified uniformly and independently of the manu-
facturer. Using these specified methods, you can easily
integrate devices from various manufacturers into your
plants and production processes.
You can use configuration control to operate different
real hardware configurations with a configured maximum
configuration of the hardware. This means that, in series
machine manufacturing in particular, you have the option
of operating/configuring different configuration variants of
a machine with a single project.
