Once an event has been extracted, the Accept Event command can be used to confirm that the event has been
successfully extracted. When all events have been extracted, the Event bit is reset. If there are more events still to
be extracted, the next event can be accessed using the Send Event command as before.
6.1.5.2 MANUAL EVENT RECORD EXTRACTION
The VIEW RECORDS column (location 01) is used for manual viewing of event, fault, and maintenance records. The
contents of this column depend on the nature of the record selected. You can select events by event number and
directly select a fault or maintenance record by number.
Event Record Selection ('Select Event' cell: 0101)
This cell can be set the number of stored events. For simple event records (Type 0), cells 0102 to 0105 contain the
event details. A single cell is used to represent each of the event fields. If the event selected is a fault or
maintenance record (Type 3), the remainder of the column contains the additional information.
Fault Record Selection ('Select Fault' cell: 0105)
This cell can be used to select a fault record directly, using a value between 0 and 4 to select one of up to five
stored fault records. (0 is the most recent fault and 4 is the oldest). The column then contains the details of the fault
record selected.
Maintenance Record Selection ('Select Maint' cell: 01F0)
This cell can be used to select a maintenance record using a value between 0 and 4. This cell operates in a similar
way to the fault record selection.
If this column is used to extract event information, the number associated with a particular record changes when
a new event or fault occurs.
