Saving the Stream Log

The Stream Log can be saved using the Download Log… button. In the Log
Download
dialog, select (or enter) a filename and path and select the Start button.
Select the Close button when the operation has finished or to terminate the process
early.

The resulting downloaded log file is saved in CSV (comma separated values)
format.

Clearing the Stream Log

Select Clear Log to clear the current log entries.

Multiple Entries

Sometimes, errors of a specific type are generated many times. To avoid reporting
excessive error entries (which could make the error log difficult to read), each time
a new error is detected, the word start is added to the error message in the Log
screen. No more occurrences of the same error are reported until the test is passed.
At that point, a message will be displayed on the Log screen giving the error Event
ID, and appending the word end to the message; the duration (ms) between the
start (event fail) and end (event pass) message is also given.
