MA5 Logging can be used in two ways:

  1. Sending regular logs of Microscan data to an email user and/or an SMS TXT message user. This is particularly useful during commissioning and testing.
  2. Sending regular logs to another Microscan/MA5 installation auto updating the respective Microscan values.
