Table 36<br />

Columns in the event list<br />

Column Description<br />

Severity The alarm severity (critical, major, or minor) or a non-alarm event<br />

(info). An icon indicates an unacknowledged critical alarm.<br />

Sequence All events are given a unique sequence number.<br />

Code A code that identifies the event. It includes the error category (for<br />

example NWS) and a 5-digit error number.<br />

Determining the cause of an alarm<br />

New indicates an alarm has not been acknowledged or cleared.<br />

Acknowledged indicates an alarm in the process of being cleared.<br />

Marked as Cleared indicates the alarm has been manually cleared.<br />

Operator Data Data produced by the equipment that generated the event. Its<br />

contents may vary. Typically, it includes a description of the event<br />

and the equipment affected (component ID information, such as the<br />

loop number or TN).<br />

An alarm may be caused by another system event, such as a BUG message. By<br />

examining the events immediately preceding an alarm, you may be able to isolate the<br />

source of the problem. Use the scroll bar to browse through the event list.<br />

To display Help on a selected alarm, do one of the following:<br />

Right-click on an alarm and choose item “What’s This?”.<br />

Double-click the alarm.<br />
