System Log Backup | V3-manual

System Log Overview

There are three kinds of logs for the robot controller.

Event log	System event messages recorded during robot operation. The log size is restricted to 100 MB, and if the size exceeds the limit, it overwrites the oldest log. It usually contains more than 1 month of data, though the duration of the log depends on the kind of task.
Data log	Real-time robot control data in milliseconds. Data log logging is activated on the user’s request. The log size is restricted to 1 GB, and if the size exceeds the limit, it overwrites the oldest log. It usually contains the last 1 hour of data.
Fault Log	A log is recorded when a fault occurs. It contains the last 1 hour’s system event message, the last 1 minute’s control data, and system status when a fault occurs. The number of fault logs that are able to be saved depends on the free disk size of the controller. If there is not enough disk space, the oldest fault logs are deleted.

To back up the system log,

Select Service Tool in the main menu and click the Log Backup button.
Select the Log Type to back up by ticking the checkbox. If the selection changes, the log file list is updated.
In the case of the fault log, you can set the date range to back up. If you want to set the range, tick the checkbox for Date Filtering and select the date range. If Date Filtering is unchecked, the whole fault log is listed.
- If you want to set a period, check Apply Date Filtering and select a period.
Select the backup directory by clicking the button.
Click the Start backup button to start the back up.
If backup is finished successfully, a popup message is shown.
Files are saved separately by log type.
