In addition to temperature change, the event log also records other key information about the
batteries, such as their manufacturer, model number, serial numbers and a history of their
charging and discharging during the logging period. A sample event log printout is shown in
Figure 67. The battery status codes and column headings are defined in the header.
You can open and view the log file in any text application. The file can be printed out or
exported to a database program like Microsoft Excel or Access and converted to a graph or
chart.
