MONITORING EDACS FAULT CONDITIONS

LBI-39169

8.3.2.1 Notification of New Events

To know when events have been received, examine the event notification indicator lights in the Event Categories window. The indicator lights will change to corresponding color of the most severe alarm logged.

To see new events as they arrive (real time), open up the EDACS or All Events Browser. Place the scroll bar at the bottom of the browser list; as new events arrive, they are appended to the end of the list.

A listing of EDACS events may be found in LBI-39215. According to the established naming convention, each event name is prefaced with letters that generally represent the reporting EDACS device. See Table 2 for the Letter associations.

8.3.2.2 Selecting Events Within a List

To perform an operation on specific events, select events by clicking the mouse button when the pointer is on top of them. When an event is selected, the text appears in reverse video.

To select one event, use the mouse select button (usually left button) to click on the event line. This action deselects all other events.

To select multiple events that are not next to each other in the list, press [CTRL] and hold it down, and then use the mouse select button to select the events you want. This action enables you to select additional events without deselecting the others.

To select a contiguous range of events, press the mouse select button while dragging the pointer across desired events. This action deselects all events outside the range.
