put into the log. Similarly, when the fault condition clears, this is also recorded, as shown per the
following example:

If Clear-All is selected, the user is prompted to choose No or Yes. Use the ◄ ► arrow keys, then
press ENT. If the user selects Yes, the event log is cleared, and the user is taken directly back to
the previous menu. However, if there are faults present on the unit at this time, they will be re-
time-stamped, and new log entries will be generated.
