Programming Instructions for System Event Reporting

Pre-conditions
• Communicator must be programmed (see Communicator Programming).
• Event Lists must be programmed (see Event Programming).
• Channels and Channel Groups must be programmed (see Channel
Programming).
Notes
The system event will only be reported by a channel, if that Channel
includes that event in the associated Event List(s).
Take note of the Sequence Attempts under Communicator – System
Event Reporting (6.11.2). This is the number of times xGen will attempt
the sequence of Channels you set up in this section.
