Event Log

The Event Log records informational messages, warnings, and errors generated by the application and synchronized devices, allowing operators to monitor system behavior, troubleshoot issues, and review historical activity. The Event Log is automatically updated as events occur and remains available across application sessions.

To investigate events that occurred on a device when the software was not connected, individual device logs can be downloaded directly from devices using NetSetter.
