When minimized, the Log Monitor main window hides from the task bar. Instead, it is represented by an icon in the System Tray.
Important! When the main window is hidden in the System Tray, the utility continues to monitor node Logger status in the background.

To display the Log Monitor again, double-click the icon.
The System Tray icon indicates the cumulative status of all nodes being monitored. Hovering your mouse over the icon displays the cumulative status as a tooltip. This status is updated automatically anytime there is a change in status information. The cumulative status reflects the following logic:
|
|
Error status |
At least one node has Error status. One or more nodes may have Warning status. |
|
|
Warning status |
At least one node has Warning status but no node has Error status. |
|
|
OK status |
At least one node has OK status and no node has error or warning status. |
|
|
Unable to connect status |
The Log Monitor is unable to connect with all nodes in the logger list. |
|
|
Connection lost status |
The Log Monitor has lost connection with all nodes in the logger list. The icon reflects the last cumulative status of all nodes. |
Note:
- There is no Connecting cumulative status because this is transitory, to be followed
eventually by one of the other five statuses.
- Right-clicking on the System Tray icon displays an option menu. For more information,
see Option menus.
