The Events Viewer
while it’s the Statistic extension that has an alarm, the Hop crop and the Dimi
area folder also show the alarm icon.

Locating the Source of an Alarm
If you notice in an Explorer that an area shows an alarm, you can right-click the
node and select Show Events. An Events viewer properly configured for you is
displayed, showing only the alarms pertinent to the selected object.
Using the Events Viewer
Right-click an event in an Events viewer to see the context menu shown in
Figure 53.

You have several options for working with the events:
• Select Manual Event to manually add an event.
• If you selected a crop event, you can add Irrigation or Treatments to the
crop.
• Create a trend by selecting one or more events, right-clicking, and selecting
View data.
• Click Explore from here to an Explorer showing where the event originated.
•Use Hide this event type to hide all events similar to the one you selected in
the Events viewer. Show the event type again by going to the Event Types
tab, clicking Select All, and clicking OK.
•Use Export all values in time range to PDF to view the events in a table in a
PDF document.
• Select Properties to open the same Properties dialog as when you select
Properties in the Events viewer toolbar.
Saving the Events Viewer
You can save your Events viewer as a panel, just like you did with the Trend (see
also page 38). You can also export events in the table view to a PDF file by right-
clicking anywhere in the table and selecting Export all values in time range to
PDF (see Figure 53).
