35 -
36 -The first thing that should be done after connecting to a processor is to open the Text Console and run the command: ##broadcast on##
37 -
38 -Running the ##broadcast on## command tells the processor to begin logging useful messages to the text console and error log. These messages typically begin with an indication of their severity:
39 -
40 -1. Error: Most errors indicate a major issue that should be investigated and remedied. Some errors will prevent the ShowRunner™ program from starting up or functioning as expected, and may be the result of a configuration issue (e.g. errors registering devices), a network issue (e.g. errors connecting to other devices), or authentication issues (e.g. errors related to connection attempts from clients not providing correct username/password information), among other possible causes.
41 -1. Warning: Warnings indicate issues that are less severe than errors and do not usually prevent the ShowRunner™ program from running, but may result in some unexpected behaviors.
42 -1. Notice: Notices are not a problem, and just give useful information during program startup (e.g. devices registered) and while the program is running (e.g. the times at which scheduled events are triggered)
43 -
44 -Running the ##err sys## command will print the most recent 500 messages to the console. Running the ##clear err## command will clear the log, which is sometimes useful to run  before doing a ##progreset## in order to troubleshoot configuration issues on startup.
45 -
46 -To view more than the last 500 messages, connect to the processor with the File Manager tool and navigate to the "Internal Storage > logs" folder. Logs since the last time the processor rebooted are stored in the "CurrentBoot" folder, with a new log started every time the current log reaches ~~1 MB in size. When the processor reboots, the logs in the "PreviousBoot" folder are zipped and moved to the "ZippedLogs" folder, logs in the "CurrentBoot" folder are moved to the "PreviousBoot" folder, and a new log is started in the "CurrentBoot" folder.

77 -*** If lighting hardware is to be connected via the LAN anyway, then you must run the command: ##securegateway default##
