The “AMC-1DB Gas Monitor V1.0” message will appear on system start next to the TIME keyword. It
displays the current F/W version. The F/W can be upgraded to the FLASH device from the USB Storage
device, please check Armstrong Monitoring for latest available F/W.
Additionally the MAC: and SN messages will appear at system start up. These items are fixed in the FLASH
device.
The “Reset Cause:0x08 PowerUp” messages will appear on system start up. Additionally there are several
other reset causes; 0x08 PowerUP, 0x04 Ext. Reset and 0x02 Watchdog Reset. External Reset is further
decoded into an additional message indicating the type of external reset; Brown Out or Multiple.
The “Watch-dog enabled” message will appear at start up when the watch-dog device has been activated.
The Watch-dog device provides checking of the system integrity and will reset the system when incorrect
operation is detected. A Watch-dog reset cause message will be displayed whenever the system restarts
due to this issue. Additionally the System LED will stay turned off upon watch-dog restart and can be re-lit by
pressing the HOLD Pushbutton.
The “No USB Restore DB File” message will appear if there is no data base restore file present on the USB
Storage device at start up. The “No USB Device to Restore DB” message will appear if there is no USB
Storage device installed. The data base restore file is used on start up to change the configuration created
by AMC Manager or restores a previous save data base. A message similar to “Database Restore from
USB c:\amc-1db.adf_restored_2013_8_27_10_45” and “Database Restore+ from USB
c:\amc1db_P.adf_restored_2013_8_27_10_45 will appear if the files amc-1db.adf and amc1db_P.adf are
present on the USB Storage device at start up. The “Monitor database save complete” message will
appear when the system has successfully saved data base changes into the battery backed storage device.
This message can appear whenever the data is changed. During lengthy data base change the data base is
only save when change activity ceases for a period of 1 minute.
The “MODBUS Updated from Data Base” message will appear when the RS-485 MODBUS subsystem is
configured. It can also occur when MODBUS is reconfigured due to data base changes. Again during
lengthy data base change the MODBUS is only updated when change activity ceases for a period of 30
seconds.
The “BACnet Updated from Data Base” message will also appear when BACnet is configured or re-
configured after data base changes. The BACnet is only updated when change activity ceases for a period of
30 seconds.
The following are other possible log messages that are always logged:
• Battery(Database/RTC) Okay
This occurs after a battery warning log message has occurred and the battery is replaced. This battery
backs up the DataBase NV (Non-Volatile) storage and RTC (Real Time Clock).
