7.3.2 Configurable parameters in expert mode

The following additional configuration options appear when the
“Expert mode” button is pressed:

The Log file field allows a separate log-file to be maintained,
dedicated to this sender instance. When left blank, the
standard syslog subsystem is used and, for most applications,
this is adequate. For extremely complex set-ups, it may be
useful to segregate messages from this instance into a
separate file.

Whether logging to syslog or to a dedicated file, the Log level
pull-down menu allows you to select the level of detail that will
be logged. The options are a subset of the standard syslog
levels: “Warnings”, “Important notices”, “Informational
messages” and “Debugging information”. Setting this field to
“Warnings” produces the least output and setting it to
“Debugging information” produces the most.

The sender takes its input from an instance of data-mux-cd11.
In most applications, there will be only one instance of this and
the CD1.1 multiplexor field can be left at its default value.
When building more complex configurations, it may be
necessary to have more than one instance of the multiplexor.
This fields lets you select, for the sender, which instance of
data-mux-cd11 to use for input. All configured instances
appear on the associated drop-down menu.

The final field, Database directory, controls where the
transmission log files, as described above, are stored. These
may be stored on additional flash memory, if fitted: See
Section 13 on page 79 for more details.
