Local Logging parameters
A secondary log file can be created on a USB flash drive. Events will be appended to this log file.
Using a secondary log file is useful if an extended logging period is required where, the normal
eventlog.txt
file would overwrite early events before the operator has had a chance to view
them. The secondary log file can be limited in size or allowed to fill the USB flash drive. Once the
log file is full, earlier events are pruned from the end of the file to allow new events to be added.
To configure the local logging parameters, set the following values in the web interface:
Local Drive to log to
Determines the drive letter where the USB flash drive is located. This is designated
u
for a USB
drive.
Log filename
The name of the file for the secondary event log.
Log size
The maximum size of the log file in kilobytes.
XML logs
On platforms that support it, event logs can be saved in XML format. This field specifies the
size of the XML log file, in kilobytes. The files created will be named
EVXML1.XML
,
EVXML2.XML
, etc.
