Introduction
External electronic logbooks (Elogs) are hosted for for both experiments on isdaq01.triumf.ca:
The elogs are protected by passwords, available to all experimenters.

Adding messages to the elog
Experimenters often add messages to the elog using the grabscreen icon to execute a screen grab and send the image to the appropriate elog. They may also manually add messages, though it is now more common to use a shared Office365 Word document for each measurement campaign (which allows for easier editing and a more "play-by-play" recording style).
Automatic elog messages
Automatic elog messages are sent at the end of run by the elog_every_run.py script, which includes summary information about the run that just happened.
Configuration File
The configuration file for the external elog (elogd.cfg) can be found under the midas account on isdaq01 in /home/midas/packages/elog/.

Starting the elog server
The elog server is started as a daemon from the midas account as follows :
$ cd /home/midas/packages/elog/ $ elogd -c elogd.cfg -x -D
This command is added to /etc/rc.local so the elog server will be started on bootup.
