Duplicate status bar messages with pop-ups
If this option is on all log messages denoting special events in channels (for instance bet placed or canceled, trigger action performed) will be displayed in pop-up message boxes appearing above the status bar panel with the corresponding channel's name. Take a look at the screenshot:
You can turn this off if pop-ups distract your attention. The messages will still be logged down and displayed in the status bar. You can also review all the channel messages of this trading session by clicking on the status bar panel with the name of the channel:
Scheduler Settings
Scheduler On
Tick this checkbox if you want to use scheduler options. You can start refreshing any of the four channel at the specified "Start at" time and finish monitoring them at "Finish at" time. They will also be started if the current time is between "Start at" and "Finish at", or stopped if the current time is not within the time period specified by these options.
If you want X-Feeder to automatically shut down at "Finish at" time, tick "Close when finished" option.
Log Files
Log all actions to text files
If this option is on X-Feeder will write all log messages down to the following folders:
- \logs\actions - all actions that are not related to any particular channel, for example transferring funds.
- \logs\failure - error messages occurred during connecting to BetFair.
- \logs\POKER, \logs\BLACKJACK, \logs\BACCARAT, \logs\HILO - all log messages related to a specific channel (betting, cancelling, changing the options of the channel).
- \logs\triggers - all trigger-related messages.
The folder "logs" is by default stored in the directory where you have installed X-Feeder. If you want to change its path set it in the "Path to log files" option.
A file named by the current date will be created in each of these folders as soon as something needs to be written into it. For instance, all Blackjack-related messages that took place on 25th of March, 2007 will be stored in a file named \logs\BLACKJACK\25_03_2007.txt
Trigger log files are named after the name of each trigger. For example, if have three triggers called respectively "Backing on Player", "Setting bet size" and "Multiplying the stake" you will have three text files:
- \logs\triggers\Backing on Player.txt
- \logs\triggers\Setting bet size.txt
- \logs\triggers\Multiplying the stake.txt
You can view today's log files by clicking on any of the six buttons in the "Log Files" panel.
Email Notifications
You may receive notifications on your email address on certain conditions listed below.
- Balance is updated
- A bet is placed
- A trigger is executed
A short text message will be sent to the email address you will provide in the "Settings" box. Enter the mail server, email address etc. in the corresponding fields. We recommend you to copy these details from the mail program you usually work with (for example, Outlook Express). You must certainly enter valid address, otherwise X-Feeder will be unable to send messages.
You must also configure your mail filters and spam killers so that they don't block the following sender: noreply@x-feeder.com.
