An example of a device event is a loss of voltage on ameter.Events are time stamped and displayed prominently on the home page ofthe PXG200E. The PXG200E provides the option for a user to acknowledgethe event, retains the time that the acknowledgement occurred and reportsthis in the event log. It is also possible to add a Note at the time ofacknowledgement that will also be reported in the event log. Acknowledgingan event does not close it.
