VIEWING THE To provide a record of high priority alarm occurrences, the circuit monitor
PRIORITY 1 LOG maintains a priority 1 log (P1 log). See Setting Up Alarm/Relay Functions in
this chapter for a complete description of the priority levels, and instructions
on assigning priority levels from the front panel.
The P1 log stores up to 10 of the last priority 1 alarms. The log operates in a
first-in-first-out (FIFO) manner. In other words, when the log is full, the
oldest log entry (the first in) is removed to make room for the new entry.
When a priority 1 alarm occurs, the circuit monitor records it in the P1 log.
The alarm remains in the P1 log until one of the following occurs: 10 new P1
alarms occur pushing it out of the log, or you manually clear the P1 log (see
Clearing the Priority 1 Log on the next page).
Note: The ALARM mode LED, on the circuit monitor’s front panel, flashes while at
least one of the following conditions is true: a nonzero priority alarm is active, or a
priority one alarm has occurred since the last time the priority 1 log was cleared.
You can view the P1 log from the circuit monitor’s front panel. The following
procedure tells how.
To view the P1 log, complete the following steps:
1. Press the MODE button until the red LED next to ALARM glows
steadily.
The circuit monitor displays “P1.Log.”
2. Press the PHASE [Enter] button.
The circuit monitor displays the alarm code of the lowest priority 1
alarm. If no priority 1 alarms have occurred since the P1 log was last
cleared, the circuit monitor displays -None-.
Each alarm code is displayed with either an “rLY” extension or an “AL”
extension. If you have set up the alarm condition to operate one or more
relays, the code appears with an rLY extension (for relay). If you did not
set up the alarm condition to operate a relay, the code appears with an
AL extension (for alarm only).
4. Press the down arrow SELECT METER [Value] button to cycle through
the alarm codes.
The circuit monitor displays the codes from lowest to highest.
5. To exit the P1 log but remain in the ALARM mode, press the PHASE
[Enter] button. To exit the ALARM mode altogether, press the MODE
button.
