Event Log Procedures

General Information

The system has the ability to record various events in a history log wherein each event is recorded in one of five categories (listed below), with the time and date of its occurrence. The Event Log holds up to 1000 events, with the oldest event being replaced by the logging of any new event after the log is full. Using an alpha keypad, the Event Log can be viewed one category at a time, or can display all events, regardless of category (ALL EVENT LOG). The system also allows selection of displaying the COMPLETE log, or only those events occurring since the last installer service (RECENT). In addition, events in the other partitions can be viewed by users authorized to access those partitions. Note that events are displayed in chronological order, from most recent to oldest.
