Generating Log Files
Note: Log files are comma-separated values (*.csv) files that can be opened using Microsoft Excel
®
software. Some computer configurations automatically open the files with the Microsoft Excel
software instead of prompting you to save the file. Excel may default to a date format specific to the
country the product is being used in, overriding the card specified format.
Data Log
The data log contains a history of the data value changes recorded by the gateway. To generate a data log:
1. Select Data Log from the Logs menu.
2. To limit the number of records, type or select one or more of the following optional values:
a. Maximum number of records to return
b. Start Date
c. End Date
3. Click View log.

card.
