System and Service Logs

From Firmware v0.15 the RockREMOTE Mini logs important events to a file named appLog.log persisting throughout reboots.

The log file includes the following:
First position fix, Modem connection, PPP connection, Signal Logging, High temperature logging, Iridium 97XX error codes.

Size​

The system and service log is set up to log until it reaches a size of 2MB, once the threshold is hit - it will be renamed to appLog.old and a new appLog.log will start fresh.

The size of the two files will never exceed 4MB.

Retrieving the log file​

Locally​

The log file can be pulled locally from the RockREMOTE Mini currently only via TFTP over Ethernet.

This requires both LAN and TFTP to be enabled in the User Configuration File

Steps​
  1. Connect your end device and the RockREMOTE Mini via Ethernet
  2. Set your end device on an IP Address within the Mini's subnet (If using DHCP skip to Step 3)
  3. Install a TFTP client if not already installed
  4. Start the TFTP client and retrieve the appLog.log file (case-sensitive)
tip

Windows CLI TFTP command is tftp -i 192.168.250.1 get appLog.log

Linux/Mac CLI TFTP commands are:

  1. tftp 192.168.250.1
  2. binary
  3. get appLog.log

Where 192.168.250.1 is the IP of your RockREMOTE Mini

Cloudloop Device Manager​

The System and Service log can also be retrieved remotely via Cloudloop Device Manager.
