I am working on an installation of a machine in Silao, Mexico and the customer wanted to run an unannounced 24 hour dry cycle (our original contract specifically stated that it was not required). Since I had everything else in place and was waiting on other items to continue on another machine, I obliged and ran the machine in dry cycle for 24 hours. The customer was told they would be responsible for monitoring the status.
They now want me to extract the Alarm History (showing the faults, or rather the lack of faults) from the HMI to use as electronic documentation of the dry run. I am using a Siemens MP270 HMI which was programmed with ProTool.
Does anyone know of a way to extract the alarm history that is being held on the HMI? I looked in pro-tool and didn't find anything and their help files are atrocious...
To be honest, I don't even know if it is possible to do or not.
Thanks in advance for the advice!
