PlantWatch saves to flash memory the alarms from the instruments connected to the network, as well as any internal situations,
which may be alarms or signal-only events. The file that contains this information is called the HYHQWORJ, and this stores the
following information in chronological order, accompanied by the date and time:
Events/alarms managed
Event Alarm
•
alarms generated by the instruments and sent to PlantWatch via the serial network
•
off-line status of the instruments (no communication)
•
off-line status of the printer module
•

•
signal of the intervention of the alarm relay
•
signal of the intervention of the alarm relay on the printer module (when slaved to the PlantWatch relay)
•

•
any internal PlantWatch malfunctions (flash error, clock, modem...)
•
instrument configuration errors (type of instrument does not match the configuration)
•
PlantWatch start-up event
•
intervention by the user for the local modification of the parameters or the time, saving the “Username”
•
intervention by the user to temporarily disable/enable the alarm signals for the individual unit
•
intervention by the user to delete the variable log, saving the “Username”
•
intervention by the user to reset the indication of the space available for saving the variable log, saving the
“Username”
•
intervention by the user to modify the variables of the peripherals using a local-remote serial connection

The event log may be printed in real-time, or selected by operator input; in the first case, the printer prints all the events as they
occur, while in the second, the operator prints only the data for the period required. The data saved for the events can be sent to
the supervisor PC via serial line (directly, or via modem).
