5-9-1 About Error Logs
The Controller Link Unit and the Controller Link Support Board both have an er-
ror logging function, which records error types, error details, and the date and
time of error occurrence for all errors that occurred during communications.
Reading the error log recorded in the Controller Link Unit or Controller Link Sup-
port Board allows you to check the errors that occurred in the past and detect
network problems.
The Controller Link Support Software displays the error log information in the
table below in chronological order. It can also clear the currently displayed error
log, or save it as a file, and read and display error log files.
