Displaying log messages

The SKR central unit writes messages into a log file during operation. The maximum size of the log file amounts to approx. 250 KByte. When this size is exceeded, a new log file is created. The log files are numbered consecutively. In order not to waste memory unnecessarily, the oldest log file is deleted when log file number 21 is stored.

In order to track errors you can have the log file displayed, also during operation, by using the freeware tool LogExpert.exe (www.log-expert.de). The program is preconfigured and opens the current log files Skr3Log.txt and BackupServiceLog.txt. You may add further files from the Client PC.
