Created by Jose Fabian Solano, Modified on Fri, 16 May at 5:57 PM by Jose Fabian Solano


✅ Step 1: Access the Funnel Configuration Interface

  1. Open the Matrikon OPC Funnel interface from your desktop or web browser, depending on how it is installed.

  2. In the left-hand side panel, navigate to the following path: Matrikon OPC Funnel > Advanced Options > Logging Options.

  3. Inside the Logging Options panel, locate the setting labeled Log Level.

  4. Change the Log Level setting to High to enable detailed event logging and diagnostic information.


✅ Step 2: Restart the Matrikon OPC Funnel Services

  1. Close the Matrikon OPC Funnel configuration panel if it is still open.

  2. Open the Windows Services panel. You can do this by pressing Win + R, typing services.msc, and pressing Enter.

  3. Locate the service named Matrikon OPC Funnel in the list.

  4. Right-click the service and select Restart.
    This step is necessary for the new logging settings to take effect.


Step 3: Locate the Funnel Log Files

In this step, use the Windows File Explorer to navigate to the following path:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\MatrikonOPC\Common

Inside this folder, you will find a file named:
PSTCFGMatrikon.OPC.OPCFunnel.1.LOG

You should send this file to the support team so they can analyze the log details.


Important Note:
It is not recommended to leave the log level set to High for an extended period, as it can consume a significant amount of memory and system resources.
Once you've extracted and saved the log file, we recommend changing the log level back to Low to ensure optimal system performance.
