Powerware FE/QFE UPS Alarm Code Summary, Reading the Inverter Log from a Terminal or Computer

Reading the Inverter Log from a Terminal or Computer

To display the Inverter Log on a terminal or computer, you can use the inverterlog or logs command (see “Entering Commands from a Terminal or Computer” page 44). These commands display up to 20 log entries in a table. For example, the log might look like this:

Active	EventDate	EventTime	Duration	Code/Event
No	08/25/1993	11:25:32	00:00:45	M-Manual turnon
No	08/24/1993	12:13:18	00:01:08	L-Line fault

The table shows whether the UPS is running on inverter (battery power) now (Active), the date and time that the UPS ran on battery power, the length of time the UPS ran on battery power (Duration), and the reason (Code/Event).

You can also display parameter 24 to view the Inverter Log; this display is the same as the control panel display.
