Enabling Fault Logging

The Fault Logging feature will need to be enabled on your Traka Touch system by loading a configuration file. This is normally done by Traka during production but if you wish to add the feature to your existing system, please contact Traka or your Distributor for further details.

Another configuration option is ‘Allow Fault Logging at System’ which controls whether faults are able to be added at the Traka Touch by the user of the system. If this option is off, you will only be able to add faults using TrakaWEB. This configuration sub-option is also set up by Traka.

Once your Traka Touch system is configured for Fault Logging, you will need to set up additional options using the TrakaWEB Administration application, as follows:

1. Launch the TrakaWEB Admin app, expand the System Management node in the tree on the left and choose the system to be configured.

2. Select the Feature Options tab on the right and check the Fault Logging section. Here you will find the option to set fault logging ON or OFF by default for all iFobs/items in the system.
   
   NOTE: This default can still be overridden on an individual iFob/item basis.
   
   
   
   
   When Fault Logging is first switched on, all iFobs/items are set to: Fault Logging=System Default. This means that you can set all iFobs/items to ON if you change the Fault Logging system default in the Admin App to ON, or alternatively, set all iFobs/items to OFF if the Admin App is set to default: OFF. The table shows configurations for most scenarios:
   
   

   Requirement	Fault Logging System Default	iFobs/items
   All items need Fault Logging	ON	All left at ‘System Default’
   Most items need Fault Logging	ON	Change iFobs/items that do NOT participate from Default to Fault Logging: OFF
   Some items need Fault Logging	OFF	Change iFobs/items that DO participate from Default to Fault Logging: ON
   No items currently need Fault Logging	OFF	All left at ‘System Default’
