2.7.E – Error Messages

The error screen contains messages printed by the FieldServer kernel as well as messages from many drivers. Starting late in 2002, drivers started sending their messages to the F Screen.

The error screen is a circular buffer which can hold a limited number of lines of information. Once full, as each new line is added to the bottom of the buffer, the top line is removed.

Kernel Messages - informational messages for FieldServer use, normally non critical.

Other messages – non critical but may assist in troubleshooting.

To clear the error screen push the R key. This doesn’t affect the operation of the FieldServer, drivers or communications to remote devices.

Press V to Display version information.
