Configure Log

 

The “Configure Log” dialog has two main functions: select the variables to be logged by the controller and to set the log interval.

 

This dialog is always invoked from a parent dialog.  The controller is determined by the parent dialog.  For example, the Setup Wizard asks you to select a controller before this dialog is displayed.

 

The dialog shows a list of modules and their named variables.  Naming the variables is a key concept of the iNetGrow system (also see the section “Named Variables”).

 

Double-click on the variable names in the list to turn logging on or off.

 

The log interval is selected by a drop-down list on the left top corner of the dialog.  You may also select to stop data logging.  In this case, the controller keeps the list of variables to be logged.  You may, at a future time, select a different logging interval.

 

The button “Refresh” rebuilds the list.  In some cases, a module may be busy collecting data or setting outputs.  In this case, the ““Refresh” button is useful to poll the modules again and build the list.

 

Each controller has a battery-backed clock and calendar.  The controller uses the time kept by this clock is to determine the log times.  You may set the controller clock to the PC time y clicking on the button “Set to PC time.”
