Configuring the algorithm.

Syntax

Definition:

METHOD Configure : BOOL
VAR_INPUT
    sConfigId : STRING;
    sDataKey : STRING;
    tInterval : LTIME;
    bIncludeTimestamps : BOOL;
    nBufferSize : UDINT;
    bBufferOnEvent : BOOL;
END_VAR

Inputs

Name	Type	Description
sConfigId	STRING	Indicates the name of the report. The name must correspond to the name of the configuration file at the Reporting Server.
sDataKey	STRING	The data key should be unique within a report. The data object can be uniquely assigned to the report via the data key.
tInterval	LTIME	Time interval at which the data should be sent to the Reporting Server.
bIncludeTimestamps	BOOL	Inserts a column with the timestamps.
nBufferSize	UDINT	Indicates the size of the buffered data. If the buffer size is equal to one, a key-value structure is built. If the buffer size is greater than one, the data is presented in a table.
bBufferOnEvent	BOOL	Indicates how the data is to be collected and buffered. If the parameter is True, the data of the inputs is buffered at each edge signal at the input. As soon as the Buffer Count output has the same value as the Buffer Size parameter, the data is sent to the TcReportingServer. If the parameter is False, the data of the inputs are buffered in the buffer at each cycle. Once the buffer size is reached, the new data replaces the previous data. If there is an edge signal at the input, the data is sent to the TcReportingServer.

Return value

Name	Type	Description
Configure	BOOL	Returns `TRUE` if successful.
