Best regards, Ilya

well if you run a CONTROL script without "-n" option the event manager is already running.

I need to know not what the event manager is running, but the exact time when it started working.

What for do you need the information when the project was launched?
Do you need the information inside of the WinCC OA project?

Does the solution depend on the answers to these questions?What for do you need the information when the project was launched?
What is done with that information?
I can write to an internal data point at startup and then read from it when needed. But I thought there was a CONTROL function for that.
Thanks anyway.

I need this information to display. In the same way as the start time of the managers is displayed in the WinCC OA console.

You can read the information from the process monitor.
For details please have a look at the documentation:
https://www.winccoa.com/documentation/W ... el-06.html
Another possibility is to read the information from the _Connections datapoint and its elements. At the element the information is saved when the connection was established between the Event Manager and other managers.
