Starting information, such as configuration errors, are registered by the service in a file called ElipsePRPSvc.log generated on the same folder of the service, if this option is enabled.
After starting, and if the monitoring service is enabled, the service sends logs and statistics to the selected UDP port, which are received by this Driver.
Log messages are redirected to this Driver's log with a prefix "PRPService: XXXXXXXX".
Statistical messages are available in the Tags shown on the next figure, which can be created in the application.
Statistical Tags
The available Tags are described on the next table.

Define a reasonable scan interval for these Tags, to avoid polluting this Driver's log. As a suggestion, a reasonable value can be between 5000 and 10000 ms, that is, between 5 (five) and 10 seconds.
