READING THE EVENT LOG

8. Reading The Event Log

Event Log Description

All events are memorized in an event log. You can
access this log, review the events one by one and
draw functional conclusions.
If the event log fills up completely it continues to
accept new events at the expense of old events - the
oldest event is deleted upon registration of each new
event.
The date and time of occurrence are memorized for
each event. When reading the event log, events are
shown in chronological order - from the newest to the
oldest.

Because of the limited display space, the event
description is shown first, then the date and time.
The two displays are shown alternately several
times, until you click
older event, or until the "no action" 4-minute timeout
restores the system to the normal operating mode.
Access to the event log is provided by clicking the
asterisk ( ) key and then keying your master user
code.
Should you wish to get an overall view of using
the log, refer to Figure 9. The flow chart may
even serve as your only guide to using the event
log, instead of going through the written step-by-
step procedure.
