Display Log
The Display Log function allows the operator to view events in the historical log directly on
the LCD display. When this option is selected, the latest event in the log is displayed with the
time and date on the top line of the display, and the event details being scrolled across the
bottom line. Each log event will be displayed in turn (stepping backwards in time) until the
end of the log is reached. Pressing the 0 key advances immediately to the previous event
without waiting for it to be displayed. Pressing the ✔
✔✔
✔ key locks the current event on the
display until ✔
✔✔
✔ is pressed again. Pressing the ✘
✘✘
✘ key exits from the display log function.
Print Log
The Print Log function allows the user to request the immediate printing of the entire system
log on an attached serial printer. If real-time log printing is enabled, new events will be
buffered until the complete log print is completed. Note that selection of this function only
starts the log printing, and this may take a few minutes to complete. The display will indicate
that printing has commenced, and return to the previous menu. If this function is re-selected
before the log has been completely printed, then the option to stop the printout is given.

Filter Log (ACT 2000 Only)
The Filter Log function allows the user to prevent certain events from being entered on the
system log. Normally all events are logged, but to prevent ACTWinPro from having to store a
lot of information on a large installation, some events may be filtered out.
The event types that can be filtered are access granted, access denied, alarms (mains fail,
tamper etc.), door events (exit button pressed etc.) and others. The 0 key advances to each
event type, and the ✔
✔✔
✔ key enables or disables the displayed event type.
The events may also be filtered out on certain doors. Normally all doors are allowed, but the
user may prevent certain doors from reporting events.
