B.3.11 Event Logger
The Event Logger is one of the four large panels in the Main Window. It is located at the bottom left of
the Main Window, directly under the Navigator. The purpose of the Event Logger is to allow the user to
record any parameter read and / or parameters write events. Logging events can be useful in order to see
what is being read from or written to the controller at the lowest level. For each logged event the event
type, parameter name, parameter number, value, status, and timestamp are logged.
B.3.12 Event Logger Toolbar
The Event Logger toolbar consists of the following buttons.
Start Logging
If the Start Logging toggle button is depressed, the Event Logger logs those events whose filter toggle
buttons (i.e. Log Read Parameter or Log Write Parameter) also are depressed.
Stop Logging
If the Stop Logging toggle button is clicked, all logging is stopped. Clicking the Start Logging button can
recommence logging.
Clear Log
Clicking the Clear Log button completely clears the Event Logger.
Log Read Parameter
The Log Read Parameter toggle button needs to be depressed if any parameter read events are to be
logged.
