What is the file size limit for black box files

The BlackBox file has a default limit of 10MB. 

  • Once the current log file goes beyond the limit, the file will be archived and a new BlackBox log file created.
    This limit can be changed by editing the Windows registry:
    HKLM\Software\BP Microsystems\BPWin\LogFileLimitMB

  • The "BP\DATALOG" folder has a default limit of 1GB (1024 MB).
    When archiving the current BlackBox.log file, the oldest log file(s) that are beyond this limit will be deleted.
    HKLM\Software\BP Microsystems\BPWin\LogDirectoryLimitMB
