The system returns a list of connection attempts by date and time, with the success or failure of each connection attempt.
The system is programmed to attempt a connection three times at a frequency determined by the polling settings.
If unsuccessful after three tries, the system will "ping" (send test data) the device. If the device fails to return test data after a "ping", the system will suspend polling the device for 15 minutes, then repeat the process.

Note
If the system fails to return any messages in the Device Log, the Device is not properly connected to the system. You may also view the status of a device by using the Device Management function in ValLink.
If the system displays messages
but not the requested Start and End dates, your request dates may be archived
because they are too far (more than two days) in the past. Set
the 
flag to display
the requested dates.
