5.3.4 Event Logs

The Event Logs page shows you recent events that have been logged by the

scanner. To open the Event Logs page, click the S

TATUS

tab, then click the

E

VENT

L

OGS

tab.

The Event Log will display events that have been logged starting with the most

recent event. Each event has level associated with it. A level of "1" means the

event is an error, while levels 2" through "4" are information events of decreasing

importance. The scanner will log events based on the Log Level set on the

Administration/System page. A level of 0 is reserved for internal system errors.

The module will not run with a level 0 error posted.
The Event Log will display the most recent 100 of these events. To display the

next 100 events, click the N

EXT

100 button. You can continue pressing the N

EXT

100 button until you have reached the last set of events. After pressing the Next
100 button, you can view the previous set of 100 events by pressing the
P

REVIOUS

100 button.

To retrieve the latest event logs, click the Reload button.
You can filter which events are displayed by setting the L

EVEL

.

When the Level is

set, only events of the specified level or lower are displayed. The L

EVEL

can

never be set greater than the Log Level at which the scanner is recording events.
You can export the ordered list of events to an XML file by pressing the

E

XPORT

XML button.
When examining the Event Log, if you switch to another page and then switch

back to the Event Log, the Event Log will continue to display the events that were

loaded when the Event Log was first opened. This will allow you to examine the

Event Log while switching back and forth between pages without having the log

reloaded.
