Keeping track of all the things which are happening on your machine can be a daunting task. Whether it’s expected events or unexpected warnings and errors of which you want to inform the user. Luckily Beckhoff provides us with a tool that can help with that, namely the EventLogger. In this article, I will introduce the PLC part of the EventLogger and show some useful features (code: PlcPart). A second article will show how to visualize the events using TwinCAT’s web-based HMI (TE2000) (code: HmiPart).
