# Event configurations installed with DEX

# Event log monitoring configurations installed with DEX {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Brazil  
Updated September 10, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
The Application and Device Health plugin (com.sn_dex) installs 20 event log monitoring configurations that are active by default. These configurations define the monitored events, log sources, and matching criteria
for Windows and macOS devices.
The Application and Device Health plugin (com.sn_dex) installs 20 event log monitoring configurations in the Event Log Monitoring Configs table. All 20 configurations are active by default: 11 for Windows and 9 for macOS.  
Note:  
These base system configurations count toward the 25-event maximum per operating system. On Windows, the 11 base system configurations leave 14 available for custom events. On macOS, the 9 base system configurations leave 16 available. To add a custom event, remove any base system configuration you don't need. See [Add an event to monitor](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/hheFNUzfSG1JoHG2Obxi_w "Add a custom event to extend monitoring beyond the base events using the Event Log Monitoring Config table."). For field descriptions, see [New DEX event form](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/zBFhGwbqssSfsyPTOerVow "The New record form for DEX event monitoring enables you to add events to monitor.").
