Event logs
Events can be stored in two locations, the receiver system and the ApexPro host hard
drive.
Receiver system event logs
Events logged to the receiver system are stored in flash memory and can be retrieved
via the diagnostic service port. The system stores the events in two flash memory
sectors. When the event storage maximum is reached, and a new event occurs, the
flash sector with the oldest events is erased. New events are stored to that sector.
Access the receiver system event logs as follows.
1. Using the 9-pin, serial cable supplied with the transmitter programming kit,
connect a PC to
Async Comm (asynchronous serial communication).
2. At the PC, use a communication program such as HyperTerminal to set up the
ComPort connection.
3. Press Enter to get the @> Enter Service Password: prompt.
4. Type password, mms_aps (case-sensitive).
5. Press Enter .
There is no command to view how many events are stored, but typically the most
recent event will be examined first. Event 1 is the first (oldest) stored event.
Use the del (display error log) command with a parameter of 999 to determine
the number of events stored. Since 999 is greater than the number of events that
can be stored, the command errors and reports the number of events in the
system.
6. At the @> prompt type del 999 and press Enter . The following displays.
@> del 999
Record not present,
XXX records stored in system.
