File names
FactoryTalk View creates two data log files:
 Data Log Model Name.log
 Data Log Model Name.tag
You’ll need this information if you log to a custom path and want to delete the log files
manually.
Data Log Models
A data log model defines which tags to log data for, as well as how and where the data is
logged.
You can set up multiple data log models, but you can run only one data log model at a
time. For information about running a different data log model, see page 26-4.
Create Data Log Models
Use the Data Log Models editor to create one or more data log models. Each data log
model is a file stored in the editor’s folder—you can open and work on multiple models at
the same time.
For detailed information about the options in the Data Log Models editor, see Help.
Set up general aspects
of the model.
Specify where to log
the data.
Specify how logging
occurs.
Specify which tags to
log data for.
