2. Type the DataLogSnapshot command with the <component> or * (asterisk)
parameter, anywhere you can use a macro or command.
Modifying existing data log models
You can modify a data log model during development or at run time, using either
FactoryTalk View Studio or the FactoryTalk View SE Administration Console.
If you change a model at run time, the changes will not take effect until you stop and then
restart data logging. For information about starting and stopping data logging, see
page 22-16.
Changing log paths
To change the log paths for a data log model after deploying a FactoryTalk View SE
application, you can use FactoryTalk View Studio or the FactoryTalk View SE
Administration Console.
You can change the primary and secondary paths for file sets, and the backup path for
ODBC data log models. You cannot use the Administration Console to change the
ODBC database.
Making run-time changes without modifying the model
At run time, you can also change the following data log parameters, without modifying
the data log model:
 The log rate for periodic logging (use the DataLogChangeRate command)
 The log file identifier string (use the DataLogRenameFile command)
Use these commands anywhere you can enter a FactoryTalk View command or macro.
For example, in FactoryTalk View Studio, or the FactoryTalk View SE Administration
Console, type the command directly at the command line.
If a tag that you delete from a data log model is used in a trend object, be sure to remove all
references to the deleted tag from the trend.
You can launch the FactoryTalk View SE Administration Console from the following location:
 (32-bit operating systems)
C:\Program Files\Rockwell Software\RSView Enterprise\Admin Console.exe
 (64-bit operating systems)
C:\Program Files (x86)\Rockwell Software\RSView Enterprise\Admin Console.exe
