Viewing Events
In the View menu, you can select different event categories for
viewing.
For each message, the following information is displayed:
- Time stamp (Time). The time stamp is updated when the message
is acknowledged. The time stamp column also includes an alarm
status icon. The color of the icon changes from red to yellow when
the event is acknowledged.
- Message text (Message)
- Location of the event (Site)
- Category of the event (Type)
- Status of the event (Status).
Each event can have one of the following statuses:
OVER = The event is not currently active. This status never
exists in the active event view.
ACKED = Operator has acknowledged the event.
ALARM = A serious condition exists (for example, one of the
sensors is not responding).
WARNING = A warning condition exists (for example, one of the
sensors requires service).
INFO = Connection to event server is not correctly
established. The alarm monitor locally generates this
alarm.
Acknowledging Events
You can acknowledge the first unacknowledged event with the toolbar
icon or by selecting the Acknowledge option from the Event
menu.
When you acknowledge an event, the icon of that event changes from
red to yellow. When all events are acknowledged, the Event Monitor
icon on the taskbar changes from red to yellow.
