Lighting Controller LCD Programmer

Chapter 13 – Event Menu

47

The Event menu is used to view and reset event entries
and to set the size of event buffer. They are also used to
enable and disable the alarm output for different
conditions, such as device status, time change, lighting
alarm, and lighting status and to acknowledge the
alarm output. Acknowledging the alarm output turns
off the alarm relay, which is triggered in response to the
device status change (device goes offline, device reset,
dead battery, and undervoltage), time change (time of
the controller changes), lighting status (breaker turns
on or off), and lighting alarms (breaker is tripped or
there is a command failure).

The events listed in Table 3 are displayed on the
Programmer. Events are displayed beginning with the
most recent events. A maximum of 2000 events can be
viewed at a time.
