What Ii the LOGS tab?

The LOGS panel is used to view events and messages from the Ampio system. With this panel, you can:

  • check what events have occurred in the system (e.g., state changes, sent commands);
  • see the exact timestamp of each event;
  • filter events by date, time, modules, and outputs.

This panel is essential for system diagnostics and commissioning – it lets you quickly check what is happening in the installation.


When should you use it?

  • During commissioning of a new system – to make sure that events are occurring correctly.
  • While troubleshooting issues – to quickly locate why something isn’t working.
  • When checking device and output reactions – e.g., verifying which device sent a command.

How to read and analyse it?

Table columns:

Column Description
Time Exact event time + milliseconds.
Name Name and type of the device that generated the event.
Type Type of event that occurred in the system.
Output Info Name of the output related to the event or command information.
Value Value of the change or message content (e.g., 0/1 for binary outputs).
Action “Show +5/-5s” button – filters logs around this event when clicked.

Filtering logs – step by step:

  1. Select a date range – you can choose a single day or a range of several days.
  2. Set the time (optional) – you can limit results to a specific time window during the day.
  3. Select a device – to show logs only from a specific module.
  4. Select outputs (optional) – to display only events related to specific outputs.

The log list updates automatically after each filter change.


Tip

Always start diagnostics by:

  1. Setting the date range.
  2. Selecting the module and optionally the outputs.
  3. Using the “SHOW +5/-5s” button to view events in context.
