12.16 Log
The system log, which is accessible from both User and Engineer Programming, is
a list of all the events on the system. The date, time, and the event description is
logged with each event.
The contents of the system log can be copied and pasted to a text file by clicking
Text File.
The complete list of recorded events can be viewed by clicking All.
NOTE
In order to avoid multiple events from the same source filling the log, the SPC system in accordance
with standards [4], permits the logging
of only three activations
of the same zone in the one set
period.
