The system is large, convenient, and inexpensive.

The processor sends either a ready function or standby function code.

The log records the problems that have occurred and the services performed.

The first one, absolutely.

The second one: I'm not sure. You could ensure it by putting "code" after the first "function."

The third one: I would change it to "the services that have been performed" for full parallelism.
