Basic Configuration

5.3.4.Log Configuration

This feature allows you to create records of command activity, alarm actions and current and power consumption for the MPC unit. The Log features are enabled and configured via the System Parameters Menus. The ability to view the Current and Power Metering logs is individually enabled for each account via the User Directory as described in Section 5.5. The MPC features four event logs: the Audit Log, the Alarm Log, the Current Metering Log and the Power Metering Log:

•Audit Log: The Audit log creates a record of all power switching and reboot activity at the MPC unit, including reboots and switching caused by Load Shedding, Load Shedding Recovery, Ping No Answer Reboots and Scheduled Reboots. Each Log record includes a description of the activity that caused the power switching or reboot, the username for the account that initiated the power switching or reboot and the time and date that the power switching or reboot occurred.

•Alarm Log: The Alarm log creates a record of all Alarm Activity at the MPC unit. Each time an alarm is triggered, the MPC will generate a record that lists the time and date of the alarm, the name of the Alarm that was triggered, and a description of the Alarm.

•Current Metering Log: The Current Metering Log provides a record of current consumption for the MPC unit. Each Log record will include the time and date, current and voltage readings for each available branch circuit and the temperature reading. The Current Metering Log can be downloaded in ASCII, CSV or XML format, and when viewed via the Web Browser Interface, can also be displayed as a graph.

•Power Metering Log: The Power Metering Log provides a record of power consumption (in Kilowatt Hours) for the MPC unit. The Power Metering Log can be downloaded in ASCII, CSV or XML format, and when viewed via the Web Browser Interface, can also be displayed as a graph.

Note: If optional Auxiliary MPC units have been connected to the AUX ports on your local MPC unit, the Log Function will also record events that occur at the Auxiliary units too.
