or Mode menu option
Display Mode Selection
This option allows the operator to specify the site and select the type of events to be displayed:
This Display Mode window is split into five sections:
List Spec
The List Spec. box offers the choices of which type of events are displayed:
All Events – The events log capacity is determined in the Disk Events field of the
System Parameters
option. The events log is a chronological record of all events (including alarms) received by the PC. The
screen displays information on all of the events as well as the current status of all alarms (refer to table 1).
When All Events is selected, the screen displays all of the events in the log or site-specific events. When a
specific site name or account number is selected, then the recorded events for that site are consolidated and
displayed separately.
Note: This option can also be enabled by selecting All Events from the mode menu.
Alarm Events – When Alarm Events is selected, the screen displays the most recent alarms signals,
received by the PC, which are awaiting operator action. The number of alarms displayed at any one time on
the screen is assigned in the
System Parameters settings of the Setup option. The status of each alarm is
indicated by the strobe icon and the background colour of the message line, see Table 1:
Alarm Status Strobe Icon Status Background
Not Acknowledged Highlighted Red Background Yellow
Acknowledged, Not Actioned Not Highlighted Yellow
Actioned Not Highlighted Grey
Table 2 : Alarm Event State
Alarms, which have not been acknowledged, are displayed on a yellow background and the strobe icon is
highlighted in red. If the Audio with Icon Only option has been disabled in the System Parameters, the
highlighted strobe icon is accompanied by the audible alarm. Alarms which have been acknowledged, but
not actioned by an operator are also displayed on a yellow background, however the strobe icon is not
highlighted in red and the audible alarm, if selected, is also silenced.
Alarm events that have been actioned are displayed on the standard grey background of the window. The
actioned alarms are removed from the screen as new alarms are received or when the screen is reselected
using the Mode option.
The screen displays the most recent pending alarms for all sites or for a single, specified site. When a
specific site name or account number is selected, then the most recent pending alarms for that site are
consolidated and displayed.
Non-alarm events are not displayed on the screen; these events are recorded in the Event Log and Printer.
Note: This option can also be enabled by selecting Alarm Events from the mode menu.
MAX – When MAX is selected, the screen displays all the MAX and MicroMAX card events. (Valid, Invalid &
Rejected)
These events are marked with a MAX card symbol.
Note: This option can also be enabled by selecting MAX from the mode menu.
