Communication between iX panel and iX-SoftControl applicatio

We have in iX7B-panel Codesys application with serial link to RFID-reader, plus some digital I/O. We collect production data from RFID-reader. This data we want to store in .csv -form to USB flash drive or to memory card.
Amount of data can be 30.000 items per one production batch.

Now the problem is how to move data from soft-PLC application to panel. Direct access seems to move it item by item, about 10 items/second. That is too slow.

Is there any way to speed up communication between panel and soft-plc?

Or is there any way to make .csv-file directly from soft-PLC to USB flash or to memory card or to internal memory (\\FlashDrive)?

Thank you for your kind answers...Anyhow we solved this problem with CSV Utility -program, available in Codesys Store. It can write .csv data directly from soft-PLC application to memory stick, located in USB port.
