Audit Logs overview

LOGO! 9 Base Module generates and records BM operations as the audit logs. LOGO!Soft Comfort allows you to view, export and import the BM's audit logs. Audit logs are displayed in the same language as the display language of LOGO!Soft Comfort. To learn how to change LSC display language, refer to Tools -> Options: General.

Audit log

Description

Event ID

The ID of the audit log event.

The maximum value for this ID is 0x7FFFFFFF. LOGO! BM can only store up to 64 audit log records. When the number of records exceeds this limit, the oldest records are overwritten by newly generated audit logs. The internal audit log storage is split into security and non-security regions; overwrites occur independently within each region (i.e., each region only overwrites records in its own area).

Note: When an overwrite event occurs, an audit log named as "Audit log first-time overwritten" will be generated and recorded. This audit log will never be overwritten by any newly generated audit logs.
