Log To File Properties
After selecting the Log To File Output, the
following Log To File Properties screen
will appear. The log file name and file size
will be displayed in the lower left box.
If the file has not been created yet (no
logging has occurred), the Size will remain
empty. The Add and Remove buttons are
available if an alternative log file is desired
for logging. Using the Remove button
will only remove the Task from the log
file configuration and will not remove the
configuration itself. When the Add button
is pressed, all available configurations will
be available, including the option for a
New Log File. To remove log file
configurations, the Log File Configuration screen found within the System Setup should be used. To
add a Task to multiple log file configurations, the Add Output button on the Edit Task screen should
be used.
The log file itself can be viewed by pressing the View button. The Data File Manager from the
Main Menu can also be used to access and view log files. The Edit button allows the specifics of
the Log File configuration to be edited and customized as shown below.
Configuring the Log File
The Log File Properties screen allows
the general setup of a log file to be
configured. Each log file has its own
configuration, independent from all other
log file configurations. The file name can
be changed, a simple preview can be
viewed, Tasks can be added or removed,
and more advanced logging options can
be altered from here.
File
Defines the current log file name. The
name can be changed by pressing the
Edit button and entering a new name.
Note that when a new name is entered, all future logging will be performed on a new log file
while the previously-named file will still exist. The log file extension (.csv or .txt) is determined by
the delimiter used within the file. The default delimiter is a comma, allowing the file to be easily
imported and viewed within
