8-6-2 Detailed Information on Event Logs
Each event has an event level that indicates its level. The event level depends on the type of event. Lev-
els are defined separately for Controller events and user-defined events.
Controller Events
Controller events are classified into five levels according to the degree of the effect that the events
have on control, as shown in the following table.
Errors with a higher level have a greater affect on the functions that the NJ-series System provides,
and it is more important to recover from them. When an event in one of these levels occurs, the Sys-
mac Studio or NJ-series-compatible NS-series PT will display the error.
User-defined Events
User-defined events are classified into the following levels. These levels are defined by the NJ-series
System. The event levels are defined for user-defined events.
