When you are in the Logging menu, the main Signal Analysis display is obscured by the logging
page. The most recent log starts from the bottom of the window. Previous Page and Next Page allow
you to scroll through the log file. To include commands sent to the instrument since the log
window display was opened, press Refresh.

Cmd Error Log

Allows you to turn the command error logging on or off.

Logging should not be used in a secure environment.

l

When set to On, all error messages are stored in a log file, regardless of whether they have been
displayed on the screen.

l

When set to Off, no further command error messages are written to the log file. Switching Cmd
Error Log

to Off does not clear the log file. The default is Off.

The log file is also stored as a text file, called Logfile.txt, on the instrument. It is stored in the
D:\

drive, in the folder: \User_My_Documents\[USERNAME]\My Documents\RLC\data.

The maximum size of the log is 10 MB. When the file reaches its maximum size, the first ten
percent of the file is automatically discarded, to clear space for subsequent error messages.
