Therefore, it is more efficient to stop and then start the interface if a
large number of tags are edited.
The FTLD Interface sends messages about its operation to
FactoryTalk Diagnostics.
FactoryTalk Diagnostics provides the following information about
the FTLD Interface:
• Informational messages on the interface startup and
shutdown.
• The scan rate of each scan class.
• The count of points loaded by the interface.
• Error messages for points rejected by the interface because they
were configured incorrectly.
• Error messages for points rejected by the FTLD server, or error
messages sent from the FTLD server.
Because the FTLD Interface is based on the PI-UniInt framework, a
few messages are sent to the PIPC log by the PI-UniInt. These error
messages are produced by the standard OSIsoft interface routines or
by the PI API.
NOTE
The FactoryTalk Diagnostics Setup and Viewer are available from the
Tools menu of FactoryTalk Administration Console.
To learn more about viewing error messages and accessing the log
file, refer to the help files for FactoryTalk Diagnostics Setup and
FactoryTalk Diagnostics Viewer.
