Hi All,
I have a question for y'all. :D I am very new to Cimplicity. My career has been as a maintenance mechanic all my life. Around 6 months ago, I got hooked on making screens for some of the machines here where I work based off their plc programs. I was trying to make mine (and everyone else's) life easier and be able to make repairs faster.
Long story short is this. I started looking into the project folder. What I found was very disturbing. I opened the ARC folder (archive I assume) and found 1.655 million files. All have the suffix of .SQL and are being generated at the rate of 1 a minute. I asked the engineer in our shop what they were and he thought that they being generated by point information being logged. I did a clie export of the points and found 914 points out of 1185 are being logged.
So here is my initial question. Can I make changed to the logging properties of these points by doing a clie export to a .csv file, change the 1 to a zero in the data log column and then import then back into the project? Or do I have to do this manually for each point. My wrist hurts just thinking about the last choice. lol
A little more information. We are using Cimplicity 8.2 Sim 22 on windows xp pc's.
BTW This is my first ever post so please bear with me and I am a complete virgin to what you all do with Cimplicity. :o
