Log Section
Logging Level
The selected logging level determines the type of data-log messages captured in
the base memory module and is displayed on the
Logs>Historic Log
screen. See
Figure 5. The
Normal
setting is the default. Every data-log message is assigned one of
these specific log levels:
Normal–
User information
Extended–
User information and internal status
All–
User information, internal status, and internal trace/debugging information
Duplicate Event Margin (milliseconds)
Storing rapidly occurring duplicate events can flood the internal memory and does not
yield useful diagnostic information. Every element of their event records must match for
events to be considered duplicates. This setpoint selects data to be stored in the internal
memory and be displayed on the
Logs>Historic Log
screen. It determines the time
between logging a duplicate event. It has no effect on an alternating sequence of events.
For example, the setpoint can be set to 10 ms. For a sequence of events ABABAB (where
A and B are different), assume the next event occurs 1 ms after the previous one. Though
identical events occur within 2 ms, well within the value of the setpoint, all events will
be logged. (Range: 0-30; Step: 1 ms; Default: 10)
Time Average for Metering
This is the sampling period in minutes used in generating data for the compact flash
Metering.pro files. A smaller interval results in more log entries. (Minimum: 1; Maximum:
120; Increment: 1; Default:15)
