Example

When you launch the Station Manager application and open a configuration, the configuration opens in
an interlocked state by design. To help you identify this error condition, the system lights the Interlock
indicator in the main window, and also writes a “Software Interlock” entry into the Message Log, To resolve
this condition, you simply press the Reset control in the Station Manager main window.

Using Application Logs to Identify Error Conditions

Both the Station Manager and MTS TestSuite Multipurpose Express applications are equipped with logs
to help you identify error conditions. These logs are your window into the state of the system, and your
information center for the source of error conditions. Each log entry is categorized with key words such as
“Warning” and “Error” to inform you if intervention is required. For quick reference, the Station Manager
application includes a Message Pane, and the MultiPurpose Express application includes an Error List
and Application Log that displays log file entries as they occur.
