Output Window

The Movicon "Output" window is used for displaying system and error messages which are generated by Movicon during the development or Runtime phase.  These messages are also saved on log files during the Runtime phase as usual, but by using this window you can get a more immediate view of the situation which is especially handy in the project debug phase.

 

 

You can select different Tabs from the bottom of the window for viewing messages according to the different groupings as described below.

 

When right clicking on the area of the window a menu will appear with the "Clear all messages" command. When this command is confirmed all the active TAB messages will be cancelled, but only those from the Output window and the Historical Log window.
