Syslog settings The device logging over network can be enabled through the Syslog protocol. By enabling
the Syslog network logging, the Alphatron SSRS will send information and error messages
over the Ethernet network. Syslog messages can either be sent to the IEC 61162-450
compliant address (239.192.0.254:514), or a user can configure a custom server address
by changing the IP address and port fields in the Syslog section. To change the messages
that are logged, ensure the log level setting is changed in the same section. The options
range from Debug to Emergency priority. When this is set, all messages at the selected
level or higher will be sent to the Syslog server.
Note The default is an IEC 61162-450 complaint address of 172.31.0.100.
Note Prior to using the Alphatron SSRS on a IEC 61162-450 network to send sentences to other units, an SFI
address must be configured. The configuration value for the address must start with SR and be followed by 4
digits, for example SR9999.
