Logs and long-running capture

Logs and long-running capture

Turn on logging when a problem is intermittent or when you need to hand evidence to another engineer.

Recommended logging habits:

• Enable timestamps for each received and sent line.
• Use a filename template that includes the port, project or date.
• Rotate logs by size or time for long tests.
• Open the current log immediately after the issue appears and keep the original file.
• Include a small sample frame in support requests so the symptom is reproducible.

For 24-hour tests or production benches, confirm the log location and rotation rule before starting the run.
