CHAPTER 6

EVENTS

All viewLinc system activity is treated as an Event, and all Events are
tracked in an Events log (Options | Events).

Data tracked as an Event is different from the monitoring data logged in
a Device. Here are some key differences:

Events occur within the viewLinc system: alarms, transfers of data
from Devices, alarm acknowledgements, system configuration
changes, general system notifications.

Devices track the changes within the environment being mon-
itored: temperature, relative humidity, air pressure, or voltage.

To ensure viewLinc continuously monitors and stores event history,
Event Validation Alarms notify you if the viewLinc Event Log has been
tampered with externally. For more about Event Log validation alarms,
see, “Event Validation Alarms” on page 114.

Use the Events window to analyze events and determine when and
where particular problems occurred, or to diagnose a situation that
requires troubleshooting.
