Fast and Easy PLC Data Reading and Logging

Reliable Industrial PLC Data Acquisition and Storage Solution

ACCON‑EasyLog is a fast, modular data logger that reads and saves PLC process data. It supports Siemens S7 and LOGO! controllers and logs data on a time‑ or event‑driven basis

Overview

Simple Data Acquisition

  • Easy‑to‑use software for quick reading and saving of PLC process
  • Logging can be time‑controlled, event‑controlled or triggered by limit values
  • Graphical representation of current and historical values helps detect deviations and trends
  • Direct import of TIA Portal symbols (versions 18–20) streamlines configuration

Versatile Input & Output

  • Run Softing’s edgeConnector or any Docker-based app
  • Support for both in-house and third-party solutions
  • No vendor lock-in, limited only by hardware resources

Flexible Storage & Analysis

  • Stores data as CSV files that can be processed in Excel
  • Saves data to MS SQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MariaDB or Oracle databases via ODBC
  • Sends data to the Arburg host computer system (ALS) for archiving
  • Provides bar and line/area charts for current and historical values

Scalable & Secure Operation

  • Supports up to 32 PLCs, expandable to 128, and up to 256 variables per PLC (expandable to 1 024 or 4 096)
  • Buffers data if storage is temporarily unavailable and allows multiple configurations to run simultaneously
  • Offers secure PG/PC and HMI communication with logging on limit exceedance or tolerance violations
