Attendant Console User Guide – Issue 3.2, September 2009
Diagnostics Tab
The Diagnostics tab, shown below, is used to set up log files. All commands, events, and
confirmations sent to the system are saved to a log file. When the file reaches the maximum
size specified in Diagnostics tab, the Attendant Console automatically erases the file and starts
over. If several log files are maintained, the oldest will be erased and a new one started.
• System Information: Indicates the Attendant Console system information.
• Connection Status: Allows you to see the communication status for each node.
o Node Number and Location: Display all the nodes that the Attendant Console is
communicating with and their locations.
o Communication Status:
– Communicating: A node is communicating with the Console.
– Not Communicating: A node is not communicating with the Console.
• Details: When a node has a communication problem, the Details column displays either
“Unknown,” “Serial Port Problem,” “LAN Problem,” or Node(s) not connected.”
• Log Files:
o Disk Space for Log Files (Megabytes): Specifies the amount of disk space you want
to use for log files (1-20 MB). The default setting is 5 MB. Note that the log files are
always 1 MB each. Therefore, if you choose 1 MB for disk space, the Console will
make two 500 KB files.
NOTE
If there is less than 5 MB of free disk space, the oldest log file will be
deleted until there is at least 5 MB available. If there is only one log file, the
Console will stop logging. If you enter the total log file size and that number
is more than 5% of the available disk space, a warning message will
appear.
