Configuring and Viewing Speedway Revolution Logs

Speedway Revolution uses the standard Syslog protocol to forward its logged

events to a remote Syslog server. The reader stores the logged events in its file

system, accumulating and persisting this information across reboots. Logs are

classified into three categories: Management, RFID, and System.

All logged events have an associated severity level. There are eight possible

levels listed in decreasing order from most severe to least severe:

• Emergency

• Alert

• Critical

• Error

• Warning

• Notice

• Info

• Debug

Configure the log levels you want to display. The reader then retains only the

events with a severity greater than or equal to the configured level. For example,

if you choose a logging level of Warning, then the logs will contain the following

levels: Warning, Error, Critical, Alert, and Emergency.

 Note: Regardless of the configured log level, the reader retains all Error level

logs and higher in an independent error log.

Use the Rshell config logging command to configure options for the storage

and forwarding of logged events. Use the show logging command to display the

logging configuration as well as the actual logged information in text form. For

details about these commands, see the Rshell Reference Manual.

Viewing the State of the Speedway Revolution Device

To display information about the current state of the reader itself, use the Rshell

show system command. Using this command allows viewing the following

statistics:

• A summary of system information—show system summary

• Platform memory usage and available application space—show system

cpu

• Generic platform statistics—show system platform

For more details about the show system command, see the Rshell Reference

Manual.
