Starting and Stopping Event Logging

The Acquisition menu offers an event logging option. Event Logging records controller transactions, events, Tx and alarm flags and relay status.

When “Start Event logging” appears on the display, it indicates that the acquisition, or logging, mode is inactive. When “Stop Event logging” appears, it indicates that Event data is being logged.

Press the Enter keypad button to stop or start Event logging.

When Event data is logged, the system creates a file named evyymmdd.log. The record includes the date, time and the event. Here is a sample of what an Event log looks like:

2004-01-23 17:54:25: Event logging enable

2004-01-23 17:55:25: Event logging enabled

2004-01-23 19:05:47; Simulation sequence activated

2004-01-23 19:05:48; Tx 6 communication no more in fault 2004-01-23 19:05:48; Tx 8 communication no more in fault

The first column of the Event log displays the date (yyyy-mm-dd) and time (hh:mm:ss) of the log. Column A displays the date and time of the log. In this example, the event’s “Delay mode” was set to one minute intervals.

The system logs the following types of events:

•Event Log

•Event status changed

•Alarm A, B, C, Fault, and X status changed

Note: New log files are created when the existing files reach 32 000 lines or at the start of a new week (0h00 Sunday)
