STAT
The STAT command provides a user-friendly, interactive way to view
alarm status (the ALARM command [Page 37] summarizes alarm codes in
hexadecimal format).

PRESENT is shown. If alarms are present, they are shown in ascending
order starting with the lowest event number:
Major alarms are displayed first, followed by minor alarms.

a one- or two-line text message. If additional alarm events are active, the
MORE> prompt is shown.
