Event Data
The GX-2003 not only saves trend files which include logged
data at scheduled times, but also saves the 100 most recent
alarm events and the 100 most recent trouble events. When an
instrument is downloaded, the GX-2003 Data Logging Software
will retrieve these events from an instrument and save them in
alarm event files and trouble event files for each instrument that
is downloaded.
Alarm event files save the time, instrument channel, and alarm
type of every gas alarm event that occurs on a particular
instrument. Warn (alarm 1), alarm (alarm 2), STEL, TWA, and
overscale events are saved.
Trouble event files note the time, whether the event is an
instrument system failure or sensor failure and the specific type
of failure. Flow failures, calibration failures, and sensor failures
are among the trouble events that are saved.
1. With the software already launched, click the Data control
