Review the Automation Control Log

The Automation Control Log records the value or state of inputs and outputs over time. Data is collected locally from the input or output pins at the schedule specified in the pin configuration. Each day at midnight, the local data is pushed to Digi Axess, which can be reviewed in the Automation Control Log.

You can view the data as an event list or in a detailed view.

Before you begin

The input pins and/or the output pins must be configured to collect and log the data from the pin.

Note Configuring application logging is one step in a larger event logging process. For information about the complete process, see Application logging overview.
