DiagAddOn – RSS Feeds

RSS-Feed
RSS (Rich Site Summary) is a type of web feed which allows users to access updates to online content in a standardized, computer-readable format.
Websites usually use RSS feeds to publish frequently updated information, such as blog entries, news headlines, audio, video.
An RSS document (called "feed", "web feed" or "channel") includes full or summarized text, and metadata, like publishing date and author's name.

RSS-Feed in DiagAddOn
All entries in the message history are automatically stored in a XML-file and can be subscribed as an RSS-Feed.
• Sequence faults
• User messages (Message blocks)
• System messages DiagAddOn
Additional to each entry in the xml-file the system creates a txt-file.
Here you can find all conditions incl. criteria analysis for sequence fault or user message.

Subscribing RSS-Feed e.g. Mail client

 DiagAddOn – Cross reference

The cross reference leads to a significant simplification of programming

E.g. Evaluation of different Types in a tool

-> x-times programmed in sequences where request is neccessary

Now: only once programmed in message block

 DiagAddOn – Crossreference

E.g. Flag M100.0 is used several times in different sequences.
