2.4.1 Audit trail
The IED offers a large set of event-logging functions. Normal process-related
events can be viewed by the normal user with Event Viewer in PCM600. Critical
system and IED security-related events are logged to a separate nonvolatile audit
trail for the administrator.
Audit trail is a chronological record of system activities that allows the
reconstruction and examination of the sequence of events and changes in an event.
Past user and process events can be examined and analyzed in a consistent method
with the help of Event List and Event Viewer in PCM600. The IED stores 2048
system events to the nonvolatile audit trail. Additionally, 1024 process events are
stored in a nonvolatile event list. Both the audit trail and event list work according
to the FIFO principle.
User audit trail is defined according to the selected set of requirements from IEEE
1686. The logging is based on predefined usernames or user categories. The user
audit trail events are supported in IEC 61850-8-1, PCM600, LHMI and WHMI.
