Path where data log file(s) will be stored
Type the path to the folder location where run-time data log file(s) will be stored. The path must be in correct syntax for the machine the folder is stored on.
- For Windows 2000 and Windows XP applications, the path must contain a drive letter (such as C:\) or use the Universal Naming Convention (UNC) style.
Paths using UNC style begin with two backslashes. For example, \\server\logs uses UNC style. In this example, logs is a shared folder on a network server.
- For PanelView Plus or Windows CE terminal applications, you can log to a location on the PanelView Plus or Windows CE terminal or to a PC or Compact Flash card. For example, \Storage Card\Data\Logs specifies a location on the PanelView Plus terminal.
To log from the PanelView Plus or Windows CE terminal to a network folder, use UNC style.
Important: The network must have domain name resolution, such as a DNS server, to resolve the UNC computer name defined in your path.
You can specify a path to a folder that does not exist. If it doesn’t exist, it is created at run time, as long as the user logged in to the run-time computer has folder creation rights at the specified location.
Files can be stored on a local drive, on a shared folder on a networked computer, or
on a Compact Flash card for PanelView Plus and VersaView terminals.
A shared folder on a remote computer must be on a shared drive.
