3.2.1.2 Event Lamps Reference
The events that occur in the building-control system are grouped into categories,
which are color-coded by severity. Each alarm category typically corresponds to an
event lamp that displays in the Summary bar [➙ 23]. The number of lamps and
their corresponding categories depends on profiles.
Each event lamp shows the total number of events for that category, and how
many of those are unprocessed (not yet acknowledged by the operator). An event
lamp will also flash if there are any unprocessed events in its category.
When the Summary bar is collapsed to a slim bar, event information appears in a
reduced format (event category abbreviation and the total number of alarms for
that category), including also icons for any event timers or applied filters.
