Functional Explanation
System Log is the server-side page that displays the internal application log. It records system-level messages including startup events, communication state changes, configuration actions, error conditions, and diagnostic information. System Log is used by engineers and administrators when diagnosing issues that are not visible as alarms or events.
System Log is accessible to Administrators only.

The System Log is a circular buffer. Older entries are overwritten as new entries are added. It does not persist indefinitely.
Use the Verbose settings on individual devices to increase the log detail for specific communication drivers when investigating a connection issue.
