Select columns 
Each line of the Event Log display has a number of elements to it – icon, type of event, 
data, VITC, ATC, LTC and PC clock time. This option allows you to select which of these 
elements are displayed. 
Selecting the events to log 
Selecting  Configure filter from the Options menu displays the Event Configuration 
dialogue used throughout OmniTek XR to specify which parameters/events are shown on 
the screen, included in event logs, used to trigger alarms and/or as SNMP event traps. 
 
The events that recorded in any Event log at any time are limited to the ones ticked in the 
Show in Log’ column of this dialogue. 
Further information about this dialogue is given in Appendix 2 (page 119). 
Logging to disk 
To write event data to a log file, you need to launch a logging session in which logging is 
started and stopped either manually or automatically triggered by time codes or PC time.
