This manual describes the "logging/trace function" and "sampling trace function" implemented
in FP0H Control Unit.
Functional comparison
Item
Logging/trace function
Sampling trace function
Applicable model Type with Ethernet function only
AFP0HC32ET/AFP0HC32EP All FP0H models
Description
Operation information of arbitrary contacts
and data is saved in the buffer memory in
the control unit together with time stamp
information. With the logging function, they
can also be recorded in an SD memory
card. In comparison with the sampling trace
function, the number of devices that can be
registered and trigger condition has been
extended.
This function can be used by similar
operations to those of the sampling trance
function of existing models FP0R/FPΣ/FP-
X.
No. of devices Max. 128 devices (Max. 256 words) 16 contacts (for 1 word) + 3 words
Memory capacity Max. 64 K words For 1000 samples
Trigger condition
Bit device ON
Cycle: Hour, minute, second
Time: Per minute, Per hour, Every day,
Every week, Every month, Every year
Instruction: F420 (LOGST) instruction
Cycle (10 ms to 30 s)
Instruction: F155 (SMPL) instruction

1.1 For Using Logging/Trace Function
1.1.1 Applicable model
The logging/trace function is available for the models of Ethernet type (SD card). However,
this function and the sampling trace function cannot be used concurrently.

1.1.2 Precautions on Using This Function
As an SD memory card is used for the logging function, there are risks of loss of data or data
damage depending on usage conditions. Consider possible risks, design a system and make
an evaluation of the system before using the function.
Precautions when powering off the PLC
If the PLC is powered off during logging or accessing an SD memory card, the following
problems may occur.
•Data accumulated in the buffer memory are lost.
•Files may be damaged.
•The SD memory card may be damaged.
Take necessary measures such as the use of an uninterruptible power system (UPS) as
necessary.
Logging speed and writing speed into an SD memory card
When the speed accumulating data is faster than the writing speed into an SD memory card,
data cannot be saved. Make an evaluation thoroughly before use.
