Local History: Time/Date Interval
Selecting the TIME /DATE INTERVAL soft key on the Local History Select Screen filters events for display within a specified
time/date interval.
• The user will be prompted to enter a start/end time and date. The keypad will be used to enter/edit the data in each field.
• The default start time is 12:00 a.m. of the current day, and the default end time is the current date and time. This allows a default
printing of all events for the current day.
• The default event type is ALL EVENTS. To scroll through event types, press the EVENT TYPE soft key. Choose between ALL
EVENTS, ALARMS ONLY, TROUBLES ONLY, SUPERVISORY ONLY, SECURITY ONLY, or OTHER ONLY. Once you have
set the parameters, press the ACCEPT soft key. Press the <ESC> key to exit the current field without saving any changes. Press the
<ESC> key twice to return to the previous menu.
• NEXT/PREVIOUS FIELD hard keys will move the cursor to the next/previous parameter field (the arrow keys will perform the
same function).
• The soft key BACK will return to the History Main Menu.
Once you press the ACCEPT key, events within the set parameters will be displayed as shown in Figure 4.8. When viewing events
within a time/date interval, if more than one event exists, a counter will indicate which event is displayed and the total number of events.
If there are no events of the specified type available within the specified range, the message "HISTORY FILE IS EMPTY" will be dis-
played. The soft keys NEXT EVENT and PREVIOUS EVENT are used to scroll through events. PRINT HISTORY will print the history
for the specified parameters.

Local History: Point Range
Selecting the POINT RANGE soft key on the Local History Select screen sets a range of device points for event display as shown in
Figure 4.10 on page 44.
• From the Local History Select screen, press the POINT RANGE soft key (see Figure 4.10).
• Enter a start point by typing in the node identifier directly, or by pressing the corresponding soft key to toggle through device types.
The four device types are Detector, Module, Panel Circuit, and Bell Circuit, in that order. Enter the end point in the same way. The
default range is N001L01D001 for the start point, and N240B04 for the end point.
• The Event Type default is ALL EVENTS. To filter the history file by event type, use the EVENT TYPE soft key to scroll through
event types. Once you have set desired parameters, press the ACCEPT soft key, and the NCA-2 will display all events within those
parameters. Press the <ESC> key to exit the current field without saving any changes. Press the <ESC> key again to return to the
previous menu.
• The soft key BACK will return to the previous menu.
As with viewing the events within a time/date interval, when viewing events within a specific point range, if more than one event exists,
a counter will indicate which event is displayed and the total number of events. The user has options to PRINT EVENTS IN RANGE
and view the PREVIOUS/NEXT EVENT (when multiple events exist).
The following is a sample point range inquiry:
Start Point: N001L01M001
End Point: N001L01B04
Event Type: All Events
