Status Brings up the Alarm Status dialog box, which shows the
current state of each alarm. The alarm state appears as
either a “1” or “0”, the “1” being digital High, and the “0”
being digital Low (0). A one-for-one correlation between
the alarm number and channel can only occur if each
channel of a 32 channel [or less] system is assigned to a
dedicated alarm number.

Log configuration
Alarm logging is a feature of ChartView Plus only. Alarm Logging allows you to monitor the
Alarm states of the instrument, and save selected information to a file whenever any of the states
change.
Alarm logging is implemented by periodically polling the instrument; the
time interval between polls is about one second. With this in mind, be
aware any event that could trigger an alarm [lasting one second or less],
could be missed and not logged.
