zenon Diagnosis Server

The zenon diagnosis server assists when there are reoccurring communications failures in the network or with the drivers, the reasons for which cannot be determined. As a centrally-located interface, the zenon diagnosis server collects all the logging data of all zenon modules, and thereby allows a thorough analysis of the system. The zenon Diagnosis Server consists of three components:

• Server: writes and manages log files. It writes a log file in a freely configurable time period. It is constantly checked if the lifespan of the logging information has expired or if there is less than the minimum adjustable hard drive space available.
• Diagnosis Clients: send logging information to the server.
• zenon Diagnosis Viewer: analyzes the data and presents all collected information in a clearly represented spreadsheet. Its filter and sorting functionality allows a targeted error search.

The zenon diagnose-Server analyzes historical data offline, but also supports the online analysis during the Runtime. Since the output is made in clear text, an examination on the spot is immediately possible.
