Configuration Overview
- Drag the Event Logger component into your schematic.
- In the component Properties, specify the number of argument strings to use. See Properties.
- If you want to include argument strings in the log message:
- Wire a component's output control pin to an Arg input control pin on the Event Logger component.
- Repeat for additional arguments.
- Run your design.
- Double-click the Event Logger component to open the control panel.
- Configure the Log Entry (message to place in the log) and Severity. See Controls.
- Click Publish.
Your log entry and any arguments are placed in the Q-SYS Core's event log, which is viewable from the Q-SYS Core Manager > Event Log.
Properties
Arg Count
Select how many arguments to optionally include in your log entry, from 0 to 16.
Controls
Log Entry
Type the text to appear in the log entry. Use curly braces {} to optionally insert argument strings, which are placed into the log entry in numerical order - Arg 1, Arg 2, etc. Argument values are received from connected output control pins of other components.
Example
If your Log Entry text is:
This is my log message, which contains {}, {}, and {}.
...your message would include argument strings from Arg 1, Arg 2, and Arg 3, in that order.
Severity
Select a severity to associate with the log entry: default (normal), error, or warning.
Publish
Click to publish this log entry to the Event Log.
Arg 1 - 16
These text boxes indicate what strings are being received for each argument from connected component control pins.
