7.1.4 The Controller Log Tab

The Controller Log tab shows the activity log of the currently attached
controller. Logged activities include project loads and unloads, project starts and
stops, password group changes, and so on. The 25 most recent messages are
retained in the controller’s flash memory.

For more information on interpreting controller log messages, see Chapter 9,
“Troubleshooting,” starting on page 227.

Saving or clearing messages

Messages can be saved from the tab by selecting (highlighting) the desired
messages, right-clicking on the selection, and choosing either Copy or Save As
from the pop-up menu. If you choose Copy, then you can paste the selection into
another application such as MS Word or Notepad. If you choose Save As, then
you will be prompted to save the selection as a text file.

If no specific messages are selected, then the entire backlog will be copied/saved.

You can also clear the log by right-clicking and choosing Clear.
