Error logging

For troubleshooting purposes, the TC3 IoT Data Agent can generate a logfile, which can be populated based on different logging levels. All necessary settings can be configured via the properties window of the configurator. Simply click on an empty spot on the topology view and configure the logging settings in the properties window.

Error logging 1:

Note that all settings are tied to the currently opened configuration and have to be set individually for every configuration. The default directory in which the logfile is created, is the TwinCAT boot directory. The placeholder [BootDir] automatically selects the TwinCAT boot directory.

Logging window

The logging window inside of the configurator is only showing log events that are related to the configurator. In order to create a log for the TC3 IoT Data Agent background service, the settings above are required.
