The VBVLog application shows the actions being performed on a channel in real-time. It also provides a built-in line status window. VBVLog starts automatically when the system is started from the context menu, or it can be started from Visual Basic.
To view individual channels, double-click the channel number in the line status window, or use a programmatic method in the VBVFrame control.
VBVLog displays items hierarchically. The top level items represent incoming and outgoing calls. Below the top items are individual controls that are executed by the call. Unless errors have occurred, these are all the visible levels.
Log entries for an individual control are found within each control item.

Most log entries have help items associated with them.
Access help by:
Selecting a line and pressing the F1 key, or
Right-clicking on the window to get the context menu and selecting Help
See Appendix 3 for more information on errors and log entries.
There are different categories of log entries in VBVLog:
|
Errors |
Shows errors encountered in system. |
|
Calls |
Shows start and stop time for each call and for the system. |
|
A call-flow message is logged whenever a call leaves or enters a control. |
|
|
Information messages |
Shows general information messages about the current action of each control |
|
Logs the events that occur when a control detects a timeout or invalid digits from the caller. |
|
|
Driver events |
Displays low-level voice driver event. |
|
Driver functions |
Displays low-level voice driver function calls. |
|
Control states |
Reflects the internal state machines used by each control. |
NOTE: The lowest level entries (i.e. details of calls and events from the voice driver) are not shown. Enable these events by selecting Options from the Messages menu.
VBVoice can log all activity appearing in a log window to a file. This log file is stored in binary format to minimize space requirements. INI file settings can also be used to control the amount of data recorded.
