The System Logs page allows you to configure and limit system messages
that are logged to flash or RAM memory. The default is for event levels 0
to 3 to be logged to flash and levels 0 to 7 to be logged to RAM.
Note: The level of messages logged to flash must be equal to or less than
the level of messages logged to RAM.
