Increase the Maximum Size of the MobileTech Event Log (optional)

When transaction information is transmitted between devices and the host system, any events that occur are recorded in the MobileTech event log in Windows Event Viewer. This log can fill up quickly, so you might want to increase the maximum size of the event log so you do not lose log history.

The default maximum size of the event log is 4,096 KB. Depending on the amount of history you want to keep, you might want to double (8,192 KB), triple (12,288 KB), or quadruple (16,384 KB) the maximum size of the event log.

To increase the MobileTech Event Log maximum size:

1. Select Start > Administrative Tools > Event Viewer. The Event Viewer window is displayed.

2. In the navigation pane, expand Applications and Services Logs.

3. Right-click the MobileTech log and select Properties. The Log Properties – MobileTech window is displayed.

4. In the Maximum log size (KB) field, enter a new maximum file size, such as 8192, 12288, or 16384.

5. Select OK.
