View Event History

Use the View Event History feature to display events on LCD. From the Main Menu, press 3 to select Event
History. Events will begin displaying with most recent events first.
The panel can store up to 1000 events. When it reaches its 1000-event capacity, it will delete the oldest events to
make room for the new events as they occur. In networked setups, each panel stores up to 1000 of its own events.
When using HFSS Honeywell Fire Software Suite, all 1000 events from every panel in the network will be
uploaded.
On multi-site displays, pressing ENTER or right arrow brings you directly into View Event History and allows
you to view the Event History from every panel in each of the sites that the multi-site display is assigned to.
