Allen-Bradley Panel View downloading / communication
(OP)
Our Allen-Bradley 550 operator interface panels are programmed to store historical text alarm messages. I'm looking for an easy way to download this data to a PC from the panel view. Data is not required in real time, but would be gathered intermittently (monthly, yearly, ...)and then displayed using an appropriate PC program. Any advice or experience is welcome.

Are you specifically speaking about pulling the alarm history out of a pv and when you state "unsuccessful" what exactly do you mean?
