Rockwell Automation 22-COMM-B PowerFlex BACnet MS/TP Adapter - Manual (Page 49)

Troubleshooting 5-5
The adapter has an event queue to record significant events that occur in
the operation of the adapter. When such an event occurs, an entry is put
into the event queue. You can view the event queue using a PowerFlex
4-Class HIM, DriveExplorer software (version 3.01 or later), or
DriveExecutive software (version 3.01 or later).
Figure 5.2 DriveExplorer Event View/Clear Screen
The event queue can contain up to 32 entries. Eventually the event queue
will become full, since its contents are retained through adapter resets.
At that point, a new entry replaces the oldest entry. Only an event queue
clear operation or adapter power cycle will clear the event queue
contents.
Resetting the adapter to defaults has no effect on the event queue.
Many events in the event queue occur under normal operation. If you
encounter unexpected communications problems, the events may help
you or Allen-Bradley personnel troubleshoot the problem. The following
events may appear in the event queue.
