Viewing Events
Events are viewed on an Event Log, a text-based listing of all
system events occurring with the data loggers on your
system.
To view Events:
1
From viewLinc, click Events. The Event Log appears,
displaying a list of events, and, if available, comments on
the event in the Event Details area to the right of the
event listing.
2 Using the date and time selectors, choose the period for
which you want to see events. Enter a date (using format
MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM) or use the calendar button to
specify a date range.
3 Using the buttons to the right of the date and time
selectors, select or deselect buttons to see specific types
of event details. After selecting an event type button to
filter your results, click
Refresh to refresh the list. The
more buttons you deselect, the shorter the list will be.
You can choose to view:
•
Alarm Events. A list of alarms that were triggered during
the specified time period.
•
Admin Events. A list of administrator actions taken,
such as logging in to viewLinc and new alarm threshold
settings.
•
Transfer Events. List of logger data transfers performed
during the specified time period.
•
System Events. List of changes to configuration options
or any failed attempts to communicate between
viewLinc Servers and data loggers.
