Horner XL4 Data Logging - All In One Controller

Data logging is the ability to save and view data from the PLC in a format that we can utilize elsewhere on the network. The Horner APG XL4 has this feature in its design to periodically log registers to removable media. (Micro SD) This data is stored in .CSV (comma-separated value) format which is compatible with many computer applications such as Microsoft Excel. Horner provides one of the easiest methods that I have seen to get data logging. You can log 30 registers in a log group and have 10 separate groups. Each group has its own configurable timer that determines the automatic reading and logging of the variables (registers). The group also has a manual trigger bit that can be set to log the variables. This all-in-one controller provides the easiest way to log data. We will look at how to configure and utilize this feature of the PLC. More information can be obtained at our website. This includes all of the links mentioned in this video. https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-data-logging Previously we discussed the following on the Horner XL4: System Hardware. https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-system-hardware/ Installing the Software Cscape https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-installing-the-software-cscape Horner XL4 Cscape Software Setup https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-cscape-software-setup Horner XL4 Establishing Communication https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-establishing-communication Horner XL4 Numbering System and Addressing https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-numbering-system-and-addressing Horner XL4 User Interface https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-user-interface
