PC Log Reports

This section allows you to program the types of PC Log Reports the panel sends through the panel’s onboard Ethernet port. These reports include information, such as the type of activity, time and date of the activity, and the user name and number. These data reports can be accessed from a PC using the Advanced Reporting Module.

If a network connection issue occurs, the panel continues to attempt to send the PC Log Reports until the connection is restored. Once restored, the panel transmits the reports. A Network Trouble message is not sent if the connection is lost because this report tool is not designed to be monitored by a receiver. The PC Log Reports have the lowest priority of panel reports sent.

Note: The PC Log Address String entered cannot be the same as that entered in Communication. The PC Log Reports option should not replace the primary communication method or act as a backup communication method.

For more information, view the XR Series Users Guide. For detailed Ethernet setup information, see the XR Series Installation Guide.
