Appendix D: Log Files X-600M Users Manual
External Log Files (Files saved to an external USB drive)
Log files saved to an external flash drive will be saved in the SQLite database format. SQLite is a widely
used open source SQL type database format. Many programs and database browsers may be found to
read, search, modify, graph or convert the contents of the file format.
A few example programs are:
• DB Browser for SQLite (http://sqlitebrowser.org/)
• SQLite Manager (A Mozilla Firefox add-on extension)
When viewing an internal or external log file through the X-600M web interface, the log will be converted
to a *.txt file. The format is a comma separated file (like a .csv file) which is easily read or modified by
text editors or spreadsheet programs.
Sample File (as saved in the SQLite database format):
timestamp, utcOffset, owSensor1, owSensor2, relay1
1423507860, -25200, 73.17, 71.48, 0
1423507920, -25200, 73.17, 71.48, 0
1423507980, -25200, 73.06, 71.59, 1
Timestamp is time in Unix Epoch Time (time in seconds since 1/1/1970 00:00:00)
System Log File – syslog.txt
The syslog file records various system events, which can be used for diagnostics and troubleshooting
purposes.
File Format:
Month DD HH:MM:SS, (message)
Sample File:
Jun 5 17:43:56 +7:0 NTP: System time -152 seconds off. Updating..
Jun 5 16:45:04 +7:0 Device: Power Up.
This file is read by requesting the syslog.txt file or going to the System > System Log tab. For example,
using the default IP address the following command would be used:
http://192.168.1.2/syslog.txt
Note: The setup user name and password are required to access this file.
If the TCP port has been changed (not port 80), the port will be required to read the file. For example,
using the default IP address, and port 8000, the log file would be read as follows:
http://192.168.1.2:8000/syslog.txt
To erase the file, use:
http://192.168.1.2/eraseSyslog.php
