Viewing Historical Alarm Messages

Alarms that have been reset can be reviewed from the History Buffers in
the Stat\History menu. SCode alarms which have been reset are stored in
the ^SC History Buffer. XSCode alarms which have been reset are stored
in the ^XSC History Buffer.
Each History Buffer contains a maximum of (9) alarms. The codes dis-
played represent past alarm conditions, with ^SC1/^XSC1 being the
most recent and ^SC9/^XSC9 being the oldest. If more than nine SCodes
alarm accumulate in a buffer, the oldest code is overwritten.
If two or more alarms are detected simultaneously, the displayed alarm
SCode is a sum of the primary codes. To resolve a non-primary SCode into
its primary codes, subtract the largest primary code from the displayed
number. Continue to subtract the largest primary code from the remain-
der until a primary code is left.
Example:
The displayed SCode is "20". The alarms detected are:
20
Total sum of all primary SCodes found
w Dirty Cell [Possible-Cell-Contamination]
-16
4
w No HC DP [Hydrocarbon-Dewpoint-Temperature-Not-Found]
