Comms Server Logging; Logging Configuration - Honeywell X Series User Manual

Comms Server Logging

To set up logging you must first decide where to store the data. A database must be set up.
The database can either be on the PC running Comms Server, or on another networked de-
vice.
There will be a database already set up by default on your PC when TrendServer Pro was
loaded. This will be called "Initial database".
To set up a database on the PC click the "Database Servers" icon, this will expand to show
"local Servers" i.e. databases on that PC. Click "local servers" to expand out to show all da-
tabases.
In the example shown there are two available databases. The default database called "Initial
database" and "June FTP".
Databases can be added by right clicking on the "Local Server" icon and then clicking "Add
Database". Enter a database name and description, click OK and the new database will ap-
pear on the list.
To add a database server you will need the IP address of the device that will be the database
server. Click the "new database server" button.
This screen configures channels for logging from a device to a database. It can be accessed
in several ways.
Any of these will display the Logging Configuration box. If this screen is selected from either
a comms port or a device then the comms port information will already be inserted. If the
screen is selected from the icon or Communications Port heading then the comms port will
need to be assigned. Select the device ID number (if necessary), from the drop down menu.
