Events Various events can initiate texts which are incorporated in the event list and
saved to the internal memory or CF card. Events may include:
- alarms triggered by out-of-limit conditions on individual channels,
- external texts triggered through binary inputs or logic channels,
- system messages (e.g. power ON/OFF, summer/winter time changeover),
- count-up of a counter,
- any message text of up to 20 characters that was transmitted to the device
via one of the interfaces.
Event

whether:
- the message text is to be included in the event list,

- or one of the texts (see below) is used.

the operating level “Configuration” (
