Event Alarm Logging
Event Alarm Logging enables you to log alarms for events that do not need to be acknowledged or reset. These events are normally system-based events, such as logging in and logging out. They do not appear in the Alarm Viewer. As a result, Event Logging is a convenient way for you to track a system issue that you are concerned about, but for which you do not want to have alarms appear in the Alarm Viewer where acknowledgement and resetting issues arise. :
The Database Logger enables you to:
- Log data about the specially selected alarms to an ALARM_LOG table.
- Save the log files, until specified criteria occur.
- Have the logged data discarded, based on specified criteria.
- Save the logged data to another file for future analysis.
You can display, print and analyze that information in a report that you create or in an Excel CIMPLICITY Alarm Report that is included in CIMPLICITY.

Step 1 | Review system alarms included in the EVENT_LOG table. |
