# Logging

The Controller can write logs to file with configurable levels of detail. The commands sent/recieved by the MDI are included in the **INFO** level of logging.

## Configuration

The logging settings are found in **Settings** <img src="https://3821062708-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FutyTkVS5yYIA5lOhHRPF%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-6c2616e8c31b3447e06f24389d17c11a921be1b1%2Fimage%20(18).png?alt=media" alt="" data-size="line">, in the **Controller** section:

## Viewing Logs

After enabling logging each time the application is opened a new log file will be created in the users home directory `~/.kivy/logs/` with the name pattern kivy\_YY-MM-DD\_NN.txt

This path will be opened if clicking the bug report button in the UI:
