Error Log - The Error Log contains information regarding errors in System or User written routines.

Data Buffering

Each host port of the terminal server receives data from the resource to which it is connected. This data may be buffered, or collected in a file, which is temporarily stored on the terminal server RAMdisk. The RAMdisk reserves up to 1MB per port. The file may be sent to the administration PC for later review or importation into another software package.

The terminal server offers the option of automatic or manual data buffering from a host port. If automatic buffering is enabled, the system will switch buffer files according to preset parameters. If automatic buffering is not enabled, the administrator must open and switch buffer files manually. Buffer files are stored on the RAMdisk in the subdirectory of the particular host port. The buffer files can be managed using commands that are similar to DOS commands. These commands are listed in the File Management Menu.
