What to do if IO card freezes
This setting defines what action the device should take in case the IO card stops responding.
Possible values are:
Show error screen
: The software goes into error state, displaying an error message to user and
preventing any further use until the error has been resolved.
Restart application
: The application itself will automatically restart, thus attempting to re-
initialise the IO card connection. This may or may not help; if the problem is within the IO card
itself, then restarting the software does not affect the problem.
Restart computer
: The computer is restarted. This is a rather drastic action and should not be
used in mose cases, if the device is in a location where it can not be supervised.
Log
These settings control how logging is done.
Hide sensitive info
If enabled, sensitive information such as patron card numbers and PIN codes will be replaced with
an asterisk (*) character in log.
Number of hours to run debug logging
If debug logging is enabled, this setting controls how many hours it is kept enabled; after this
number of hours have elapsed after application start, the debug logging is disabled automatically
to prevent excessive logging from filling up the log database.
Note: if the device or software is restarted, this time interval starts from zero always. If the device
is restarted ever day, for example because it is turned off for nights, and this interval is set to 24
hours it will never trigger and debug logging will be enabled always.
Save log
Select what type of information should be stored in the log.
Notifications
Libcabinet can send email notifications to administrators (staff) of various events.
High inventory level threshold for email alert
If set to more than zero, the cabinet will send an email alert if the inventory contains more than
this number of items. This setting can be used to get alerts when the cabinet is too full; note,
though, that the number of items that the cabinet can hold depends on the material and is not
absolute.
Low inventory level threshold for email alert
If set to more than zero, the cabinet will send an email alert if there are less items than this
number, in the inventory.
