Detailed system error and event messages are logged to a system log file.
The messages are written to an ASCII file with a

it does not exist already. The system log file names take the format,

YYMMDDHHMM.log

where

YY

= year,

MM

= month,

DD

= day,

HH

= hour,

and

MM

= minute.

What Is the Tag Browser?

With the Tag Browser utility, shown in Figure 2-4, you can view the
general configuration of all configured tags in the system. Launch the
Tag Browser by selecting Project»Tag»Browser.

A list of all the configured tags appears in the listbox. Select a tag by
clicking on it, and the configuration for that tag displays on the right.
For more detailed tag configuration information or to learn how to edit
