files for each instrument that is downloaded.

Alarm event files save the time, instrument channel, and alarm
type of every gas alarm event that occurs on a particular
instrument. Warning (low alarm), Alarm (high alarm), STEL,
TWA, and overscale events are saved.

Trouble event files note the time, whether the event is an
instrument system failure or sensor failure and the specific type
of failure. Dead battery alarms and sensor failures are among
the trouble events that are saved.

database:

button along the right side of the program window. The Data
Window will appear.
