Retrieving MSC Controller Event Buffer

 

Event Buffer - Image 1

 

 

The Event buffer is the last x (10,000 is the default) transactions stored in the controller (MSC firmware only) and can be "replayed" via a starting serial number. Serial number transactions start at 1 when the controller is reset. In the event that you have lost your database, you can request the controllers resend the events (the controller always starts from the last event it sent the gateway, unless you use this command).

 

 

To Retrieve Buffered Events

  1. Click the Design Mode Icon DM Icon to enable Design Mode.
  2. Go to Setup >> Hardware Setup >> All.
  3. Right-click an NXT-MSC controller and select 'Event Buffer'.
  4. Enter '1' then click okay.
  5. In Live Events you will see all the events generated since the controller was last reset (they will all have the same Server Time Stamp).
