Emerson E2 operation manual Setting Up Logging, Logging Setup Menu

matically.

When you first create an application in the E2, you can tell which inputs and outputs belong to the Base Log Group: an “L” will be displayed at the right-hand side of their definitions. The “L” is a marker that signifies that the input or output is currently part of a logging group (either the Base Log Group or another group as assigned by the user). If there is no “L” beside the definition, the value is not part of a logging group and therefore will not be logged.
