Hi All,

One question , is it possible to export the alarm history from a basic HMI?.
Means already there are some alarms in alarm history showing on the HMI and those I want to export to USB drive.

Hi Vishakha,

To my knowledge, there is no specific button to export the HMI alarms from the AlarmView. However if you have created an alarm log, it its automatically saved to USB. This configuration should be under HistoricalData -> AlarmLogs.

Hope it helps.

Hi Vishakha,

Also make sure that the USB inserted in the panel meets the requirements mentioned in the manual:

SIMATIC HMI HMI devices Basic Panels 2nd Generation - Connecting a USB device

Also, I would not recommend that the USB exceeds 16GB of total capacity.
