12.1 - List Events File
Selecting the Menu Letter of this option allows you to view and optionally or clear the Events File. The Events File
is a stored log of all events recorded by the SNMP Access Gateway. This log can also be transferred and deleted
using FTP, which is covered in another chapter. Upon selection of this menu item the events log will be listed out as
shown below and a prompt will allow you to pause and clear the records which have been shown. Below is an
example of an Events File listing. Notice that the last ‘DATA’ record which was received also matched an Alarm
Formula and so this record was stored in the events file twice, once as a data record and once as an alarm record.

12.2 - Clear Events File
Selecting the Menu Letter of this option clears any existing records currently logged in the Events File. Upon
selection of this menu item you are prompted with a Sure prompt, and answering ‘Y’ to this prompt clears the log.
Sure? (Y/N) Y
12.3 - View Active Alarms
Selecting the Menu Letter of this option shows the following display representing the current state and alarm status
of sensor inputs and data alarms. Note the asterisks in the display below. These indicate an active alarm condition
for the associated alarm. Since there can potentially be more data alarms than can be displayed on a screen, this
display is intended to give a quick indication of the presence of data alarms which can then be queried in more detail
using another option in this section. The position of the asterisks in the display below correspond to the order of the
data alarm formulas as defined in the Alarm File (covered in another section herein).
