Structure of the log files

A successful sealing procedure is marked with “OK” in the respective log row. If a malfunction occurs dur-
ing a sealing procedure, this is recorded in the log by a incident number, e.g. F4. The corresponding fault
value (e.g. sealing temperature, or force) will, depending on the nature of the malfunction, be displayed in
square brackets or no value will be displayed.
