MENU 8.3 DISPLAY HISTORY
The controller keeps a record of the last 64 events that have taken
place. The events include the type of drive cycles executed,
obstruction detection, various faults, power failures etc. When
this tool is selected a screen is displayed (see below) which dis-
plays the last event that occurred. The NEXT and PREV buttons
can be used to view each event. The "EVENT#" field shows the
sequence of the events, with 1 being the first and 64 being the last.
The example below shows that the last event was a close cycle
which succeeded in closing the gate. When finished viewing the
events, simply press EXIT

MENU 8.4 SERVICE COUNTER
The controller provides a periodic service counter which can be
set to expire after a number of drive cycles. When expired, the
controller will beep at the beginning of each drive cycle and a
message will be displayed on the MAIN SCREEN. The tools dis-
plays the current value of the service counter and allows the user
to set its value using the normal parameter editing techniques (See
PARAMETER VIEWING AND EDITING). If the service count-
er is not to be used it can be set to the maximum number which
requires 60,000 cycle before service will be due. The example
below shows the service counter with a value of 60000.
