3.9.5 Event Log Menu
The microprocessor within the transceiver monitors many operational
parameters and logs them. Events are classified into four levels of
importance, which are described in
Table 3-3 . Some of these events
result from a condition that prevents the normal operation of the radio;
these are “critical” events. These cause the radio to enter an “alarmed”
state, and the
POWER
LED to blink, until the condition is corrected. All
events are stored in the Events Log, which holds approximately 5,000
entries
.
Time and Date Stamping
The events stored in the Event Log are time stamped using the time and
date. You must manually enter the date and time at the AP.
See “DEVICE INFORMATION MENU” on Page 84 . The manually set
time and date clock is backed up by an internal battery.

and are lost if power is removed.
