Add Program execution entries to log

[rhughes]

I have found the log very useful for finding problems. However, I haven't seen a way to include Program execution in the log. It would be extremely helpful to have Program log entries added that included (along with the Program name):

IF Run by Event

IF Run Directly by

THEN Started by IF

THEN Started Directly by

THEN Interrupted

THEN Ended

ELSE Started by IF

ELSE Started Directly by

ELSE Interrupted

ELSE Ended

 

Thanks.

Another approach that might work (instead of, or in addition to, Program logging) is to add another column to the log called "Controller". Example controllers might include:

 

- Manual (for devices)

- Scene (for devices)

- Device (for scenes, however it may be necessary for devices if a scene can't be resolved from a manual switch control)

- ISY Program (THEN) (For devices or scenes)

- ISY Program (ELSE) (For devices or scenes)

- ISY External API (For devices or scenes)

 

I guess this could be difficult if you don't always know the ultimate source of the controller (e.g. other than the PLM).

Hi Randy,

 

I like it ... we actually have to revamp our logging because it's quite rudimentary now. We do know the source of each action including the IP address of a remote client. All this information should be available in the log.

 

Thanks and with kind regards,

Michel
