Hello all,
I am trying to create a “event log” via AEScreen. The event log should contain any event that occurred between any day in past(lets say yesterday) and some day in the future(1/01/2019 for example). I already configured my own AES configuration.
When I open the panel the event log is empty. I would expect it to contains some events from yesterday?
From the moment that I opened the AEScreen I can see all the events that happened afterwards. However if I close the panel and open it again the event table is it empty again.
Any advice?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Event log
The AEScreen can be started as "Alert Screen" to display alerts or "Event Screen" to display events.
In the Event Screen you can choose the mode "Open" and "Closed".
In "Open" mode you will see the events which will occur since the Event Screen was started. When you stop and start the screen again the entries in the table will be deleted and new lines will be added.
When choosing the option "Open" + "Historical data" you will see the (archived) events which occured in the given time range. New events will then be added to the table.
Where do you want to save the information created by the "event log"?

Re: Event log
Hi Leopold,
Thanks for replay.
What about the “Close” mode? Should it not give me tall the changes in one specific period range?
Well I do not know what I am doing wrong but the only way to see some values on it, is in “open” mode.
I do not plan to save that information anywhere for now. I just want to see what did happen on the systems on last 3 days for example.
Thanks
Antonio

Re: Event log
In "Closed" mode you will see entries if they are archived.
Please check if an _archive config is configured for the dp elements where you want to read the history.
