SEL Manager

The System Event Log (SEL) manager allows you to:

• View SEL events.

• View the properties of the non-volatile storage area for SEL.

• Save SEL events to a file.

• Print the SEL events to a local printer.

• Clear SEL records from the non-volatile storage area on the server.

SEL events display as a sequential record of managed server events, one event per row.

Those records contain the following information:

• Number of Event

• Timestamp

• Sensor Type and Number

• Event description

• Generator ID

Each of the columns can be sorted by clicking on the column heading. Clicking the

column heading again sorts the column in descending order. Column heading width can be

adjusted.

When the SEL manager is active the SEL menu is added to the DPC Console menu bar

between the Action and Window menus.

SDR Manager

The Sensor Data Records (SDR) manager allows you to:

• View Sensor Data Records.

• View the properties of the non-volatile storage area for SDR.

• View SDR information in a previously stored file.

• Save SDR information to a file.

The SDR Manager displays with a navigation (tree view) pane, a presentation (grid) pane

and a description pane. Selecting an SDR from the tree view displays the corresponding

SDR information in the grid. Both the tree view and grid can be resized using a splitter

bar. The individual data columns in the grid can be resized.

When the SDR manager is active the SDR menu is added to the DPC Console menu bar

between the Action and Window menus.
