Event Logging Procedures
IMPORTANT: In order for time and date stamping to occur, the
system's real-time clock must be set. Refer to the SETTING THE
REAL TIME CLOCK section.
The system has the ability to record various events in a history log (224 event
capacity) wherein each event is recorded in one of five categories (alarm, check,
bypass, open & system), with the time and date of its occurrence (if real-time clock
is set). The log may be viewed (Display Mode) using an alpha console, or can be
printed (Print Mode) on a serial printer (connected to the system via a 4100SM
Serial Module).
EVENT LOG MODE COMMANDS
Display Mode (installer or master): Enter CODE + [#] + [6] + [0]
Print Mode (installer only): Enter CODE + [#] + [6] + [1]
Clear Event Log (installer only): Enter CODE + [#] + [6] + [2]
To EXIT Event Log Mode: Press [Q] at any time.
Programming The system can be configured for the following event log activities:
• To either record events but not print them unless commanded to do so, or to
automatically print the events as they occur (field 1*72).
• Specific event categories to be logged can be selectively enabled (field 1*70).
• The time stamp can be programmed for either 12 or 24 hour formats (field 1*71).
• The date format can be programmed for either MMDDYY or DDMMYY (field 1*55).
• The printer baud rate can be set to either 300 or 1200 baud (field 1*73).
• Set event log time/date report enable (fields 1*40 & 1*41).
• Enable reporting of event log capacity (i.e.. 50% full, 90% full & overflow)
programmed in fields 1*40 & 1*41.
Event Logging Display &
Print Modes
After entering event log mode, the following will be displayed:
ENTER 0 = RECENT
1 = COMPLETE
The Event Log holds up to 224 events, and can display or
print all events in a category (complete), or only those
events in a category occurring since the last Clear Event
Log command (recent). Note that once the Event Log is
full, the oldest event will be erased upon the logging of any
new event. Press the desired display mode key, 0 or 1.
SCAN LOG BY PART
0=NO 1-8=PART #
The system allows viewing of any partition's event log.
Enter the partition number for the partition whose events
are to be displayed. Entering 0 (NO) will display all events
that occurred in the system regardless of partition.
For display and printing purposes, events are stored on a
partition by partition basis (except system events), and
are grouped into five categories as follows.
Use the [3] & [1] keys to scroll to the next or previous category screens
respectively:
ALARM EVENT LOG
TYPE CCC UUU
Displays time/date for zones that have either caused an
alarm or have been restored in selected partition.
CHECK EVENT LOG
TYPE CCC UUU
Displays time/date for zones that have caused a trouble or
supervisory condition in selected partition.
BYPASS EVENT LOG
TYPE CCC UUU
Displays time/date for zones that have been bypassed in
selected partition.
OP/CL EVENT LOG

Displays time, date and user number for each arming and
disarming of the system for the partition selected.
SYSTEM EVENT LOG

Displays time/date for system problems, such as AC
Loss, communication failure, etc., regardless of partition.
ALL EVENT LOG
