Step 8. Set Alarming and Logging Options through the RCOUI
You can specify alarming and logging conditions using the Alarming / Logging Options dialog box. Check the options in the alarming group and logging group as needed to keep you apprised of the status of your RCO system during runtime.
Important: Changes made to the Alarming / Logging Options from the RCOUI are not saved to the database. Changes are effected dynamically for this instance of RCOUI only.
Note: Open the TrackerCfg_UI to set alarming and logging options that will be saved to the RCO configuration.
Each log entry is limited to 120 characters. Characters that are more than 120 (121+) will be ignored.
Do one of the following:
- Select Options>Alarming/Logging on the RCOUI menu bar.
- Click the Alarming/Logging button
on the toolbar.
The Alarming / Logging Options dialog box opens.
