Subject area that activated the event (e.g. CAN or USER).

Functional description
The structure of the logbook corresponds to a ring buffer:
As long as free logbook memory locations are available, the
entries will be saved to the next free memory location (
).
If all memory locations are occupied, the oldest entry (
) will
be deleted in favour of a new entry.
The newest entries will always remain available.
Note!
In the event of a supply voltage failure, the logbook is saved and reloaded
automatically when the controller is switched on. This ensures that the error
history of the device does not get lost. For this reason it is very important to act
with caution when deleting the logbook entries.
