response time latencies (especially when communicating through the cellular modem) and CPU
overload might be experienced during extensive usage.

Event Log
The event log is the central place where all components of the Anybus Edge firmware store their
event messages. Each event message consists of the message text, a timestamp and an event
type.
Click on a message's text in order to open the help system and show more detailed information
on the respective message if available.
Timestamps are stored in the device in UTC. When displayed they are converted to the time
zone of the system running the web browser. Note that the system clock of the Anybus Edge
device may not be synchronised. In this case the timestamps will not display correctly.
The event types are represented by small icons:
Information: Provides information about normal operation
Warning: Informs the user about unexpected but unproblematic events.
Error: Informs the user about a failure in one of the firmware's components.
Fatal error: Typically prevents device operation and should not happen.
Debug message: Is used during firmware development and should not appear in production firmware.
Events are stored in a circular buffer in RAM. That means that the event log will be emptied
when the device is restarted and that new events may overwrite older events once the circular
buffer is completely filled.
