The files are written to a directory with the name formed from the name of the device type (for example, VT325) and the value of the Network→Hostname field, and has the form VT325-DeviceName. If the name is not specified by the user (by default, hostname), then the IP address of the device is used to form the directory name, and the name has the form VT325-192.168.0.193. Inside this directory, create a directory for the log files (log), video files (video), sensors dump files (sensors), and log archive files (archive). The files are named based on their creation time, and 2016.11.17_16-37-43.log. At the beginning of the log file, upon creation, service information like the device type, software version, IP address, etc is stored. Log files are written in text form.  Sensors dump files are recorded in a text table format CSV. The CSV format is supported by many office and engineering programs, including Microsoft Excel, OpenOffice, LabVIEW, etc.

Log files are recorded during the day and are closed at 00:00 by device time. If the device reboots, then new files are created.

The log file is filled in as events occur, and looks like this:

#

# Device type: "VT325", Firmware version: "2.7.1".

# Hostname: "hostname", IP: "192.168.0.199", MAC: "d8:80:39:9e:97:a7"
