Hi AGME,

there is a topic where someone is explaining what you want to do.

Hello,

thanks for your reply, I have managed to create the csv file but now I have some questions about how to adapt it to my application.
I need to save data every cycle, so I need to save in the same csv file in each row the data of the cycle. How can I do this?
In the example you sent me you write a single buffer but I need that buffer to change every cycle.

Hi AGME,

I think writing each PLC cycle in a csv file, which is on the flash, is not a good idea, as this will destroy your flash quickly.

So you should maybe collect your data in the plc, an array or so, and just write it from time to time.

You can also open the file in a different mode which allows you to append data to an existing file.
