Event Definition

Definition

An event is a change in state of digital data, or any incident detected by the MicroLogic X control unit, EIFE Ethernet interface, or IO modules.

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 X control unit display screen.

Low severity events are information-type events. They can be consulted as follows:

• With EcoStruxure Power Commission software.

• With EcoStruxure Power Device app

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 chapter is valid for events detected by the MicroLogic X control unit. Refer to the following documents for events detected by the EIFE Ethernet interface, or by IO modules:

• For information about EIFE events, refer to DOCA0106•• Enerlin'X EIFE - Embedded Ethernet Interface for One MasterPacT MTZ Drawout Circuit Breaker - User Guide.

• For information about IO events, refer to Enerlin'X IO - Input/Output Application Module for One Circuit Breaker - User Guide.

Maintenance Events

Maintenance events are events that have an impact on the health state of the circuit breaker. They are notified by the service LED in addition to generating a medium or high severity event.

• Orange service LED: medium severity detected alarm that requires non-urgent maintenance action.

• Red service LED: high severity detected alarm that requires immediate maintenance action.

Management of Events by MicroLogic X Control Unit

The following diagram gives an overview of how events are managed by the MicroLogic X control unit.

Event Time Stamping

Each event is time stamped with the date and time of the MicroLogic X internal clock.
