Turns all event logging on or off.

Event File Name Field

Contains the full file name and path of the event file, (i.e. C:\Program Files\Beagle Software\ClockWatch\eventfile.txt).  Enter the file name in the field or press the Browse button. This file must be specified for Event logging to work.

Log to NT event log: When checked, ClockWatch also writes events to the NT event log.

Log these Events:
Specify the events you want included in the text or NT event log.

Normal Cases:
Start time check - logs the timeserver and when the time setting process is started
Time check result - logs the result of time setting activity

Problem Cases:
Connection to timeserver fails - logs when ClockWatch is unable to contact the timeserver (after all retries)
Time change when it exceeds  <interval> seconds - You can specify for ClockWatch to log an event if the time change exceeds a threshold limit value.  Insert the threshold time (in seconds) in the box. Whenever the difference between the system time and standard time exceeds this value an event entry will be made.
