View Events
The system displays information regarding real-time events of major importance and disregards those of
minor importance (e.g.: if the system is dealing with three fault events when a pre-alarm event occurs, the
fault events will be disregarded and cleared from the display and the pre-alarm will take priority). All
events are saved to the log and can be viewed.
16.1.1 Signaling on the display
If several events of the same type occur, only the first will be shown on the display. If several alarms occur,
the first alarm will remain on the first line of the display and the most recent alarm will be shown on the
line below.
To view the events on the display, press button
