is the same.
Figure 21-1 Alarms Report
Displaying Alarms
Alarms can be displayed in two operations. One is accessed in graphics mode, and is
described under
Graphics-level Status Displays on page 19-10; the other is accessed
from the menu level, and is described here.
To redirect alarm reporting from the printer to the console, press [C] at the Alarms
Menu (or [D], [C] from the Main Menu). The following message appears:
Console is Reserved for Event Log -- Hit F3 to Return to Normal Mode
When an alarm occurs, it will now be displayed on your screen, in the same format as
the report (see Figure 21-1), except that the header information and node number are
not shown.
As long as the redirection is in effect, your screen is dedicated to real-time reporting
of alarm messages. Then press
[F3]
to return the screen to normal mode and resume
sending alarm messages to the printer. Press any key to return to the Alarms Menu.
