8.2.5 Connection status
A connection status log entry identifies when someone has either remotely
or locally connected or disconnected a computer to the level crossing
monitor.
Examples of the connection status of a serial port changing is:
Wed 06-04-94 22:09:09.4 Serial Port A connected Wed 06-04-94
22:10:27.4 Serial Port A disconnected
8.3 Analysis
Analysis of multiple log entries requires a knowledge of the Boolean
expressions with which the level crossing monitor has been configured.
An example is the following set of log entries:
Tue 08-03-94 10:43:37.2D 16 LOW_BATT

* DO FAULT
_
The input LOW_BATT has become false. This caused the
Intermediate variable *DO_FAULT to become true due to the Boolean
expression upon which *DO_FAULT is based. This in turn caused
the output NO_LX_FAULT to become false which is indicated on the
front panel of the monitor and also is reported to the Control Centre.
The input LOW_BATT has become false also caused the output
BATTERY to become true due to its Boolean expression. BATTERY
is used to indicate the type of fault that has occurred.
Note that the because all the events occurred in the same 0.25 scan
the order in the log is based on the scan order and not the order in
which the events occurred.
