What I am interested in how to load (save) all this data, on a S7-2xx, I am aware of its limitation, but have never gone this far in loggin data to memory, I have been checking stuff at siemens, they do sell a 64K (or 256K) memory module for data logging, recipe, etc (and amazingly its cheaper than the older 32K mem. modules!)
any help would be appreciated.
