Event Log Display

The Event Filter helps users tailor the Event Log's contents to meet the application's reporting requirements. There are
currently three types of messages that can be recorded in the event log: General Messages, Warnings and Errors.
General messages include server startup and shutdown messages; Warnings include messages such as device not
responding; Errors include messages such as the rejection of bad OPC item request.

Users can access the Event Filter in the Configuration Client by clicking Tools | Event Log | Event Filter.
Alternatively, users can also right-click anywhere in the Event Log display and then select Event Filter.

Note: The Event Log system would be useless if there was no mechanism to protect its contents. If operators could
change these parameters or reset the log, the purpose would be lost. Utilize the User Manager to limit the functions an
operator can access and prevent these actions from occurring.
