Description
A Function Code defines a specific action or type of data. You can log all
function codes or a specific code.
You can log all devices or a device with a certain address by your own choice.
Note! The device address is automatically copied from the current settings in
the File Log Settings window, see “Saving the Communication Log to File” on
page 7-39. You can change this address to any other address that you want to
log.
Mark this check box to enable filtering by function codes and addresses.
Select the check box for the type of error you like to record: Time-out Errors,
Check Sum Errors, or Other Errors. You can select one or more check boxes.
Specify the number of messages that will be added each time the
Communication Log window is updated. If the log is updated too quickly, you
may increase the Number of messages value to reduce the update speed.
