NOTE: Because it is a binary file, you cannot view scsi.log with
WinTail. See “The Detail Log” on page 209 f
or instructions on
how to view
scsi.log.

You can view three sets of logs:

1. The PDR Access Control service records messages from the real-time

processor into profile.log. As installed, the WinTail application reads this log
file by default.

2. VdrPanel logs all RS-422 protocol messages for supported third-party

protocols. Logging occurs to files VdrPanel[ABCD].000 and
VdrPanel[ABCD].001 in the directory where VdrPanel is run. Logging has
a timing resolution of 10 msec. Use a dedicated RS-422 logger for better
resolution and accuracy.
