STEP 11. EVENT LOG LIST
The Event Log associated with a ‘Manual ID’ is automatically generated and saved in the PDA device.
The Event Log screen provides a summary of every alarm event. This data is transferred to the
command center software database by connecting the PDA to the command center PC. Once the
information is downloaded to the database, the content is automatically deleted on the PDA.
Complete analysis of the spectra for the stored events can be performed with either the PDA or the
Command Center SW installed on the Command Center PC.
