It works well except one thing: That's everytime I turn on the CPU (power off, then On again), the data of previous runtime in data log is lost. I want to keep the data of previous runtime and continue to write new data into data log. I use the DatalogOpen function with mode 0 but it doesnt keep data. Thanks.

Is it possible you are opening a different datalog file each time the plc powers on? How about temporarily disabling all your data log plc logic, restart the plc, then access the data logs via the web server. If the data is still there, your logic may have problems. It is also possible your plc firmware and software are not the latest. Is the plc firmware 2.2 and TIA Portal V11 SP2 Update 2 (or higher)? Perhaps do screenshots of the data log create, open, etc. logic? Do you have any first scan logic associated with creating the first data log that may be resetting or creating a new data log?

It is possible you make a count of pulses written so that when he makes a shutdown serado store the last pulse sequence and from this point forward.
