You can change this option to set what you need. Here's the complete list:

1   E_ERROR
2   E_WARNING
4   E_PARSE
8   E_NOTICE
16  E_CORE_ERROR
32  E_CORE_WARNING
64  E_COMPILE_ERROR
128 E_COMPILE_WARNING
256 E_USER_ERROR
512 E_USER_WARNING
1024    E_USER_NOTICE
6143    E_ALL
2048    E_STRICT
4096    E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR

Hope it helps.
