SIREC D Display Recorder 7ND4000

Operation
5. Alarms/Events Data Log -The alarm/event
window is used to display alarms, events and reset
information. This data may also be recorded
to disk by enabling Alarm data in the “PROGram
- Disk functions - Alarm on/off” menu. (Chapter
4).
The second line of the display indicates the
status of the alarm checking. If alarm checking is
enabled this will indicate ‘Alarm Check On’ or it
will indicate ‘Alarm Check Off’ in which case no
alarms will occur. The state of alarm checking is
changed in the “FUNCtion - Alarm Check” menu
(Chapter 3).
The format for any entry in the Alarm/Event file is
- Date Time Point Status Value. The Point value
is shown as Pt X, where X is the point number.
The Value shown is dependent on the Event. The
Event can be an Alarm, an input contact closure
(event) or a reset, either automatic or manual.
For linear inputs, the alarm event description is
HIGH1 or LOW2, where the number is the alarm
count up to a maximum of 5. For conditional inputs,
the alarm event descriptions are TRUE or
FALSE. The value is the actual value at the time
the alarm was registered. An event message of
“*” is an alarm return to normal condition, the time
the point came out of alarm.
Resettable points, such as totalizers, will show
the event as RESET, with the actual value at the
time of reset. Some Resettable point types, such
as HI PEAK will have two entries (Pt 6 above).
The first entry is the date and time that the high
peak occurred, with the peak value, the second
entry, above it, is the actual time the reset occurred,
with the value at that time.
3-8
NOTE
Resettable points will not print unless the
Reset Print option is turned on in the
“PROGram - Points” menu (Chapter 4).
For external events via the digital inputs, you can
define separate messages for each of the three
inputs, one for input activated (Close) and one for
input deactivated (Open). These event messages
can be entered, up to a maximum of ten characters,
in the “PROGram - Digital I/O - Event msgs”
menu (Chapter 4). This message will appear in
the log as - date - time - Switch number (Sw X) -
Event message. Default event messages are
CLOSE and OPEN as in the last line in the logger
example above. Figure 3-12 shows a typical
Alarms/Event Data Log.
