Historic Logging
Running—
Starts the historic log but does not affect flash memory logging, status point
log entries, or special events logging.
Stopped—
Stops the historic log but does not affect flash memory logging, Status Point
Log entries, or special events logging (Subsequent events will not be put into the historic
log, preventing newer events from overwriting older events. Be sure to return the
Historic
Logging
mode to the
Running
setting so future events will be logged.)
Clear History Log
This button clears all data in the historic log. It does not affect flash memory logging,
status point log entries, or special events logging. The date and time of the last
Clear
History Log
command are displayed. Clearing the historic log permanently deletes all
event data. If event data should be preserved, generate an HTML report of logged data
before clearing the log.
Chronological Browsing (static – no refill)
Chronological browsing is only available in the
Static View
mode. It is not available in
the
Real Time View
mode. Because the size of the
Logs>Historic Log
screen is only a
fraction of the historic event log, the historic event log must be navigated chronologically,
either by
Browse By Time
mode or
Browse By Page
mode.
Browse By Time
This loads up to 160 events that occurred at or after the specific time entered. Only
events that satisfy the event categories criterion are placed in the
Logs>Historic Log
screen. If all events in the historic event Log occurred before the specified time, the
oldest-available events are placed in the
Logs>Historic Log
screen. The
Logs>Historic
Log
screen is refilled as soon as the specific time is entered; the specified time is cleared
when the refill is complete.
Browse By Page
Historic log pages can be browsed four ways:
Oldest 8 Pages—
Loads up to 160 of the oldest-qualifying events from the historic event
log
Newest 8 Pages—
Loads up to 160 of the newest-qualifying events from the historic
event log
Previous 8 Pages—
Loads up to 160 previous events relative to the events currently in
the
Logs>Historic Log
screen
Next 8 Pages—
Loads up to 160 next events relative to the events currently in the
Logs>Historic Log
screen
When the selection is entered, the
Logs>Historic Log
screen is refilled immediately.
Because the historic event log is circular, selecting the
Previous 8 Pages
option may
cause the newest events to be displayed (if the
Logs>Historic Log
screen presently holds
the oldest). Similarly, selecting the
Next 8 Pages
option may cause the oldest events to
be displayed (if the
Logs>Historic Log
screen presently holds the newest)
Wave Form Capture
Click on this button to trigger a waveform capture to be stored in the compact flash
memory. Select the
Tools>Compact Flash Access
options on the menu to retrieve the
file.
