Event Log Menu

The microprocessor within the transceiver monitors many operational parameters and logs them. Events are classified into four levels of importance, which are described below. Some of these events result from a condition that prevents the normal operation of the radio—these are “critical” events. These cause the radio to enter an “alarmed” state, and the POWER LED to blink, until the condition is corrected. All events are stored in the Events Log, which holds about 5,000 entries.
