Good Monday morning to everyone

I am using FTV, RS micro developer and MicroLogix 1400 A PLC's

I need help to understand the data logging that's built into the tree.

Where would be a good location to read up on how it works internally and how the customer can poll the system and retrieve the information.

I know next to nothing about data logging.

Thank you for your time and attention

Ok, another question, Please indulge

Were is the log kept in memory
How much memory is use per word stored.

For instance, if I store ten words per basket, for eleven tanks, that's 110 fords per basket, and I run 50 baskets per day, that's 5,500 words. How much memory do I need to cache 3 days.

Since Micrologix doesn't data log floating values, whats the best practice for changing Floating Values to words.

Thank you for your valuable time and attention to this matter.

BR
