The log window is a visible client component. It is used to display messages of any kind in a text format line by line. In addition, the input can be stored in a separate database. If the contents of the log window should be stored even during a power failure, a "Save" command must be triggered via the data point "Save" after each reception of a message at the input. By a text input in the top (set off) line, the content is filtered in the protocol window.
In contrast to the value driven text, can only display the current message, the log window can display the progress of an input signal line by line in a list.
Via "WPF-Theme" the appearance of this component can be varied.
Note: After deleting the database entries, the project must be restarted. Without this operation, the last entries would still be visible in the log window.
