Event Logging Procedures

About Event Logging

The system records various events in a history log, which can be viewed by the master
user on an Alpha Display keypad.
• The Event Log holds up to 100 (VISTA-20P Series) or 50 (VISTA-15P Series) events.
• Events are displayed in chronological order, from most recent to oldest.
• When the log is full, the oldest event is replaced by the logging of any new event.
