23.9.2.1Viewing the Log file
Viewing the log file from the ISY is best done using a database program. By default the ISY
produces a file for use in Excel. However, any database program that can read comma
separated values (.csv) files can be used to view the log.
From the ISY Administrative Console select the Menu item Tools | Log. A requester will
open asking if you wish to view the log in Excel. Selecting Yes will produce a file and open
Excel. Selecting No will open a file requester allowing you to save the file to a location of
your choice. Start your database program and open the saved log file.
