To view the alarm log, either: click
Actions menu, press F11 on the keyboard, or click View Log on the LocalView Setup tab.
Note Click the column headings in the alarm log to sort the log entries by those
columns. Items are sorted by their textual appearance. For example, if your
PC is set to display dates as month-day-year, you might obtain a listing with
years unsorted. This may not be what you want. You can use the simple
workaround in the next procedure to obtain a chronological list.
Caution Honeywell recommends that the Short Date Style in Microsoft Windows be
set to yyyy/mm/dd or a similar date input (such as yy-mm-dd). What
matters most is that a sequence of year, month, day be used in the format,
and that months be expressed in numbers, not text. The double m and d
ensure that single digits are padded with zeroes. For example, June 7,
2009 should be expressed as 2009/06/07.
Use Windows' mouse and keyboard techniques to select/deselect log items. For example:
• To select more than one user or site, press the Ctrl or Shift keys while selecting.
• To select all the alarms in the list, press the Ctrl+a keys.
Before printing one or more of the alarms listed in the log, you have to select them (see
on page 258).
