Using the Event Log
As events are performed in the On-air List, a record of those operations is kept
in a file called c:\profile\evntsch.log. You can extract information from this log
file for record-keeping, billing, or any other purpose where accurate records are
required.
The information in the log file is stored as ASCII text in tabular form, separated
by commas. You can use a text editor to read the file, but be careful not to save
any changes you may make. You can see an example of a section of a log file
in Figure 142.

The Scheduled Duration field shows the value entered in the On-air List. It does
not show the actual duration of the event. The times shown in the Start Time
and End Time fields are actual times which can be used to calculate the event
duration.
The List Name field shows the name of the original list containing that event,
which subsequently was Scheduled and became part of the On-air List
When the log file reaches about four megabytes in length, the information in
the file is moved to a new file called evntsch1.log and kept as an archive. This
ensures that evntsch.log always contains current information, but keeps its size
manageable. Subsequent archived information will be stored in evntsch2.log,
evntsch3.log, and so on.
