Reading the Alarm Log from a Terminal or Computer

To display the Alarm Log on a terminal or computer, you can use the
alarmlog or logs command (see “Entering Commands from a Terminal
or Computer” page 44). These commands display up to 20 log entries in
a table. For example, the log might look like this table:

Active

EventDate

EventTime

Duration

Code/Event

No

08/25/1993

11:25:32

00:00:45

J-User Test Alarm

No

08/24/1993

00:01:08

A-Low Battery

No

08/24/1993

00:08:11

B-Near Low Battery

The table shows whether the alarm is active now (Active), the date and
time of each alarm, how long it lasted (Duration), and what caused the
alarm (Code/Event).

You can also display parameter 25 to view the Alarm Log; this display is
the same as the control panel display.
