About the snapshot file
The snapshot feature captures diagnostic counter values into an .xml file.
If you enable this feature using the command line, it will capture the values from the specified workstation.
If you enable this feature from the Main window, it will capture the values from all workstations, whether expanded and shown or not.
The snapshot file can be opened in FactoryTalk Diagnostics Counter Monitor or in Windows Notepad, allowing you to view specific tag names, groups, duplicate tag references, and for general documentation purposes.
TIP:
The first portion of the .xml file is specific to the
FactoryTalk Linx
diagnostics. Search on "FactoryTalk Linx Gateway
" to locate the beginning of the FactoryTalk Linx Gateway
-specific portion of the file. From that point to the end of the .xml file contains FactoryTalk Linx Gateway
diagnostic information.You can also send this file to Rockwell Automation Technical Support if you need troubleshooting assistance.
