The Event log contains a historical record of system messages, warnings, and errors that have occurred on your Ewon device. These messages can be useful for troubleshooting issues.

By default, events are presented in reverse chronological order: recent events on the top, older ones at the bottom. You can sort on any field to present them in a different arrangement.

The events are displayed in different colors to differentiate Error (red), Warning (orange) and Trace (black) events.

The contents of the Event log can be retrieved from the Events.txt file from the Ewon device’s FTP server (or the File transfer page).
