23.4 Log Files
For every Lake Controller session, one or two sets of log les are created (statistical log les require a
Lake-enabled amplier on work area). These XML les can be viewed as text or imported into Microsoft
Excel. The les are located in the installation folder \logs, also available via a Windows Start menu shortcut.
To import log les into Microsoft Excel, right click
on the le and choose OPEN WITH->EXCEL. For
Excel 2003 and later, select OPEN AS AN XML
LIST.
Earlier versions of Excel (pre-2003) do not provide
full XML support and should not be used for log
le import.
23.4.1 Statistical log les
Assuming at least one Lake-enable amplier is present in the current system conguration,
the Lake Controller software will continuously log statistical information to a le. The logged data includes
amplier operation statistics in addition to faults and warnings.
23.4.2 Event Log
When Lake Controller is started, the EVENT LOG currently viewable in the EVENT LOG tab is written to a
le and continues to do so in 2 min intervals until the Lake Controller is closed. The name of the le is the
date and time from when the Lake Controller is started. The interval can be changed in the iC.ini le.
