In DMXControl 3, numerous actions from all program components, such as the {{Manual Windowcaption|[[Kernel DMXC3|Kernel]]}}, {{Manual Windowcaption|[[Umbra DMXC3|Umbra]]}}, and the {{Manual Windowcaption|[[GUI DMXC3|Graphical User Interface (GUI)]]}}, are recorded in log files. These include, among others:
* Startup procedure of the kernel and the graphical user interface
* Establishing and disconnecting connections between the various program components
* Loading a project
* Creating and activating the {{Manual Windowcaption|[[DMX-Interfaces DMXC3|DMX output]]}} via different interfaces
* Adding new {{Manual Windowcaption|[[Device DMXC3|devices (Devices)]]}}
* Actions in the {{Manual Windowcaption|[[Stage View DMXC3|stage view (Stage View)]]}}
* Starting and stopping {{Manual Windowcaption|[[Cuelist DMXC3|cuelists (Cuelists)]]}} via {{Manual Windowcaption|[[Cuelist Group DMXC3|cuelist groups (Cuelist Groups)]]}}
* Triggering actions via {{Manual Windowcaption|[[Input Assignment DMXC3|input assignment]]}}
* Saving or exporting the project
* Exiting the graphical user interface, Umbra, and kernel

During the installation of DMXControl 3, the installer also logs the installation process. This primarily includes whether the required additional modules are present or need to be installed, as well as a list of all the files that the installer copies into the desired directory.

The entire logging function serves the development team in case of errors, to trace the actions that were performed earlier, should the error not be explicitly noted in the log files. Therefore, in DMXControl 3, under {{Manual MenuText|Help|Export Logfiles}}, there is a function to export all log files, which can then be attached, for example, to a bug report in the bug tracker.

{{Picture_with_subtitle|DMXC3 Manual Log Files Menu-entry.png|1|Export function for the log files|center}}

This function automatically creates a zip archive that compiles all the log files. The file name includes the date and time when the export was performed.
{{Manual Box | en | Important | DMXControl 3 only stores the log files for a limited time. The last '''10''' sessions per program part are always saved. This means the log files can be exported later in the case of an error, and not necessarily, for example, during an ongoing event.}}

The log files can also be viewed by the user at any time with any text editor, such as the Editor or Notepad++. By default, the log files are stored in the following directories:
* '''Kernel''': {{Manual Filepath|C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\DMXControl Projects e.V\DMXControl\Kernel\Log\}}
* '''Umbra''': {{Manual Filepath|C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\DMXControl Projects e.V\DMXControl\Umbra\Log\}}
* '''GUI''': {{Manual Filepath|C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\DMXControl Projects e.V\DMXControl\GUI\Log\}}
* '''Installer''': Installation directory of DMXControl 3, by default under {{Manual Filepath|C:\Program Files (x86)\DMXControl 3\}}
{{Manual Box | en | Hint | If a custom {{Manual Windowcaption|[[System Configuration DMXC3|system configuration]]}} has been set up for DMXControl 3, creating an environment variable to move the working and configuration directory to a different location, the directories where the log files are stored will change accordingly.}}
