This my sound crazy but is there a simple way to log and timestamp all data changes on contrologix from the hmi? We have many process lines that have hundreds of variables that can be changes to adjust the process. We have some people that are bad about changing multiple thangs and not telling anyone or recording it and sometimes they don't even know what they are changing.
Locking it down is not a option because many times it is the process engineers that mess things up and then i have to figure out what they did. It is kind of like looking for a needle in a haystack and you don't even know that it is a needle you are looking for.
I would just like to monitor every parameter that is changable through the HMI and time stamp what it was and what it changed to in some easy fasion. Every way i can think of is really involved. Any simple ideas?
