Event Logging Setup
On the navigation tree, click Diagnostics > Event Logging > Setup. The Event Logging Setup
screen appears:
In order to use the Event Log, you must set up the IN-tact 1101 to capture specific events. Use
the following information to enable event logging. Also, it is important to note that SNMP traps
are not filtered by the Event Log settings specified here.
Field/Button Description
Severity Select the severity level of events to log from the drop-down list.
There are four levels of events and they are listed in order of severity
below with Error being the highest. The severity level you select will
capture those events, as well as any events that are more critical. For
example, if you select the Warning level, both Warning and Error level
events will be captured, but not Info or Debug level events.
Error — In most cases, these events will have some impact on
operations and transactions may not be processing correctly. Error
events usually requires an interaction or attention on your part. Some
error events should be exported and forwarded to Hypercom for
analysis, as they may indicate a firmware problem.
Warning — These events are indications that should be monitored.
They do not necessarily indicate a failure, but cover operations like
polls being lost and then restored. Warnings often indicate a transient
event.
Info — These events simply provide information; they are not
indicative of a problem, but are useful in analyzing what is happening
with the device.
Debug — These events are related to the internal operation of the
IN-tact 1101 and are not generally useful to anyone but system
engineers. These events record buffer allocations and memory
addresses to analyze software operation within the device. You may
be asked to select this level of logging when working with Hypercom
technical support.
Send To Click the Syslog checkbox to send the events to a system log at
another location. You must provide an IP address of where to forward
the events.
