Settings
FTSpooler Settings allows changes to process control, logging information saved, and user interface presented.

Logging is particularly helpful in determining problems and troubleshooting. Select one of the Log level views:
- No logging - Do not keep the log records when running FTSpooler
- Normal - Keep basic log records when running FTSpooler
- Verbose - Keep detailed log records when running FTSpooler
Click on the View button to see the debug log file.
