7.6 Terminal Mode
In this mode, system events are continually logged through the serial port to the device connected to the port. Port 2 operates by default in Terminal mode.
The printed log entries contain a time and date stamp and the alarm text message. Terminal mode uses this format for printing alarm entries:
MMM DD HH:MM:SS.hh KYWD MESSAGE | :::: <CR> <LF> | |
Symbol | Description |
|
MMM | Month (3 letters) |
|
DD | Day (2 digits) |
|
HH | Hour (2 digits) |
|
MM | Minute (2 digits) |
|
SS | Second (2 digits) |
|
hh | Hundredths of Second (2 digits) | |
KYWD MESSAGE | Keyword (ALARM, NOTICE, COMMAND, or STATUS) | |
::::System Diagnostic Information
<CR> | Carriage Return Character (ASCII 13) |
<LF> | Line Feed (ASCII 10) |
An alarm message is prefixed by the word “CLEAR” whenever an alarm is entered into the Event History Log with a cleared status.
