Log File Configuration
The Log File Configuration screen reveals all log file configurations available on the System
5000
regardless of whether they are being used by existing Tasks. Configurations are
TM
completely separate from log files themselves. A configuration simply defines how data will be
recorded to a log file. If a log file configuration is removed, the log file will remain, however, all
logging to that file will cease. Configurations are typically created automatically via the Log To
File Output, detailed in Chapter 6, and can only be removed using this screen. Logging can also
be enabled or disabled for individual configurations via the Disable/Enable Log function button.
Config Options: New configurations can be created and selected configurations can be edited or
removed through the New, Edit, and Remove buttons. New configurations will contain the Date
and Time variables by default. Both the New and Edit buttons will open the Log File Properties
screen, explained in Chapter 6, allowing simple viewing or changes and updates to be made to
the configurations. The Remove button removes only the configuration, discontinuing further
logging to that file, but does not delete the actual file. Actual file operations can be
accomplished through the Data File Manager.
File Options: The actual Log File defined by the selected configuration can be viewed by
pressing the View button.
