The parameters of the Event viewer

To set the parameters of the Event viewer, do the following:

1. Go to the Main tab (1) on the settings panel of the Event viewer object.
   

2. From the View events drop-down list (2), select: all events, last event, all last events.

   Note

   When you select all last events, if the object has a repeating event, the time of the existing event record is changed, and a new line isn't created in the Event viewer window.

   By default, all events are displayed in the Event viewer window.

3. In the View days field (3), specify the time period in days over which the events must be displayed in the Event viewer interface window if there are more events than the number set in the Max.number field (4). If there are fewer events than set in the Max.number field, events for all days are displayed, regardless of this setting. Events are excluded from being displayed until their number becomes equal to the value in the Max.number field. Verification of the fulfillment of this condition and exclusion of events from being displayed occurs every 50 events.

4. In the Max.number field (4), enter the maximum number of events to be displayed in the event viewer. The default value is 10,000. The maximum possible value is 50,000. You must increase the value in this field if you notice that events of objects that rarely generate events are deleted from the event viewer when switching the filters.
5. Set the Show video checkbox (5) to enable the operator to view the video recordings in the Event viewer window. Viewing the events of the Record to disk type of the Camera objects is only possible.
6. Set the Show object on map checkbox (6) to enable the operator to view the object selected in the Event viewer on the map.
7. Set the Show report checkbox (7) to enable the operator to create a printed report about events in the Events viewer window for a specified time period.

8. Set the Load protocol checkbox (8) to load the last 1000 events registered in the Event viewer object to the Event viewer window when you start Axxon PSIM.

   Note

   When the Load protocol checkbox (8) is set, the events of those objects that have been deleted without specifying the source (the name of a deleted object is not displayed) can be displayed. Such operation of the event viewer allows for the extra control over system objects.

   If the filter of the event viewer is configured to display events from several objects or several types of objects, then if the Load protocol checkbox (8) is set, the last 1000 events for each object or each type of object are loaded.

   For example, if the event viewer receives events from the Camera 1 object and all Macro objects, then 1000 events from the Camera 1 object and 1000 events from the Macro objects are loaded.

9. Set the Hide Region checkbox (9) if you don't want to display the Region column in the Event viewer window.

10. Set the Hide Card checkbox (10) if you don't want to display the Card column in the Event viewer window. This column is used to display the number of an access card for events coming from ACS integration modules included in the ACFA PSIM subsystem. See Displaying card number for access events in the Event viewer section in Introduction into the Guide for configuring and working with the Access Manager integration module.

    Note

    The card code is saved in the PROTOCOL table in the param1 field of the event associated with access (for example, ACCESS_IN).

11. Click the Apply button to save the changes.

The parameters of the event viewer are set.
