Event Definition
Definition
An event is a change in state of digital data, or any incident detected by the MicroLogic Active control unit.
Events are time stamped and logged in the event history of each module.
Events are categorized according to a level of severity:
-
High: urgent corrective action is required.
-
Medium: corrective action needs to be scheduled.
-
Low: for information only.
All high and medium severity events generate an alarm and a pop-up notification screen on the MicroLogic Active control unit display screen.
Low severity events are information-type events. They can be consulted with EcoStruxure Power Commission software.
Alarms and trips are events that require specific attention from the user:
-
A trip is a high severity event generated when the circuit breaker trips.
-
An alarm is an event with medium or high severity.
The information in this part is valid for events detected by the MicroLogic Active control unit.
