Optical Ring Controller Link Networks
Connection configuration data for Optical Ring Controller Link Networks can
be read using the Connection Information Menu. In addition, since an Optical
Ring Network can have up to 62 nodes, the maximum number of nodes for
which each menu’s functions can be used has been increased to 62 (from 32
with Ver. 1.10).

Saving and Printing of Error Log Files
Error logs read from specified nodes can be saved to files, and this data can be
read from the file and displayed. The error log data saved to files in this way,
can be displayed and edited using a standard text editor, and used in other
applications. It can also be printed out.
