and Alarms. Log Triggers are similar to the normal triggers discussed

in the previous section, but are intended for longer term use, when the

user is not constantly watching the screen and waiting for a change. The

Log Triggers operate only within the Logging tab, just as the normal

triggers operate only within the VANC Triggers tab. Alarms are used

to record the time and frame location of an error message. The Alarms

report the content of the packet and are arranged in three categories in

the Logging Options pop-up window.

5.6.1. Log Viewer

The Logging tab displays stored information regarding triggers and alarms,

allows the log to be printed or saved, and provides options for the infor-

mation the log stores. The default log screen shows all alarms and trig-

gers that appear in the Log Viewer. The events are sorted by the time at

which they occurred and also contain information about the event type

and when the event triggers, if applicable. To view more information

about the Trigger or Alarm, click on the ‘+’ button to the left of the the

Trigger or Alarm of interest.

The Log Viewer display can be altered by using the “Filter By:” drop

down menu to limit or expand which trigger or alarm types are being

displayed. The displayed log can be updated by clicking the Refresh

button, which is found at the upper right corner of the Logging module.

To remove the current log information and start a new log, click the

Clear Log button below the Log Viewer.

The current log can be saved or printed out to retain the information.

Click on the Save As... button to save a copy of the log as an HTML

ﬁle to a speciﬁed location. It may take 10 to 15 seconds to create the

downloadable log. To print a copy of the log, click on Print to launch

a pop–up window with print options. The printable copy can be ﬁltered

by what is present in the log, much like the drop–down ﬁlter menu used

for viewing the log. There is also an option to select the range of log

entries printed, or the option to print all. After selecting the desired

print options, click OK to choose a printer and print the log, or Cancel
