Chapter 4: Events
All events - such as alarms, transfers of data from the device,
alarm acknowledgements, system configuration changes and
general system notifications - are tracked in viewLinc’s Event
Log under
Options | Events .
The data tracked in Events is different from the data tracked
in a device. Where the viewLinc Event Log tracks events
occurring within the viewLinc system (such as notification of
successful transfer of data from a device to a stored local
directory), the device itself tracks the changes in
temperature, relative humidity or voltage.
To ensure viewLinc continuously monitors and stores event
history, event log validation alarms notify you when the
viewLinc event log has been modified. For more about event
log validation alarms, see Chapter 3: Alarms.
Use the Events function to analyze events and determine
when and where particular problems occurred, or to
diagnose a situation that needs troubleshooting.
