Log settings
In the "Log settings" area, you can use the check boxes to decide which events are entered in
the log. The log is structured as a circular buffer. Bear in mind that with a high degree of
detail of the data, the circular buffer fills up more quickly which can have a negative effect on
the performance of the device.
