The collection of the CIMPLICITY counters occurs whenever the router process (w32rtr.exe) is running.
Data is stored in log files. When the log file has reached a configured size it is closed and all the log files are rolled over.
The counter collection, including the number of files kept, is controlled by a configuration file.
The log files generated by the CIMPLICITY counter collection process are in the CIMPLICITY Log directory.
Example
\CIMPLICITY\hmi\log
There are two variations on the log file names
PERFDATA_#_DATA
PERFDATA_#_HEADER
Where:
PERFDATA_ indicates that the file is a CIMPLICITY counter log file
# indicates when the file was created relative to the other PERFDATA_ files. The newest file is PERFDATA_1.
_DATA file contains the actual values recorded.
_HEADERS file is used to match a column form the DATA file to a specific counter.
These files are in a comma-separated format (CSV) and can be loaded into Excel.
