Event Reporting Chart
To simplify the configuration of reporting system events to Monitoring Stations, the event messages are divided into 5
Event Groups as described in the following table below: Due to lack of space in the display, the following abbreviations
are used
alrm
,
alrt
,
o/c
” and
all
(i.e. all events).

The PowerMaster allows you also to select which event groups will be reported to each of the two Monitoring Stations.
The table below describes the available reporting options. The minus (
-
) symbol means "but/less/except" e.g.
all(-alrt)

all
events except

. The asterisk (

Monitoring
Station 1
