FAQ

EVENTS

The Enervista Event Logging system is made up of two components: the EventServer, which collects events and stores them in an on-line database, and the EventViewer, which provides an intuitive graphical interface for viewing, querying, and PMCS the database contents. The Eventserver is only configured and activated for a device when its ‘Events’ item is selected during device setup. By default it is not activated.

The EventServer is the workhorse, running invisibly in the background it is constantly polling, if the feature is activated, the devices for device events. When an event is reported from a device the event is retrieved and stored in a SQL database.

The EventViewer is easy to use. It provides a friendly Windows interface, with toolbars and pull-down menus for quick and easy selection of many pre-configured views of your data. There are also provisions for creating custom views of your data as well.

Please see the PMCS Event Logger (GEH-6512).pdfmanual for more details.

Alarms and Events

If a received device event is off sufficient high priority it is defined as an Alarm. An Alarm is the highest priority message and indicates a condition in the network, such as a circuit breaker tripped, a circuit breaker in pickup, or a set-point threshold crossed.

Events are lower-priority information that usually indicates a status change, such as a notification that the requested waveform capture has occurred, or an internal communication error with a device has been detected.

All device generated event definitions can be reassigned from their default definitions as Alarms or Events. Please see the PMCS Event Logger (GEH-6512).pdfmanual for more details.
