Here, you select which columns should be displayed in the event table.

• Show dateIf you do not check this box, only the time will be displayed.

• Use 2-digit years To display the time stamp in the "Time" row you can select a 2-digit display of the year. Otherwise a 4-digit display is shown.

• Show milliseconds To display the time stamp in the "Time" row you can set the display to show milliseconds. Otherwise only seconds are displayed.

Standard columns

The standard columns selected here are displayed in the event table:

• Name of the HD store

• Folder where the events are stored

• Name of the event

• System time stamp

• whether the trigger was released by an incoming or outgoing event

• Priority of the event

• Message defined for the event

• the optional comments 1 and 2

• Info URI.

Acknowledgment columns

Each event can be acknowledged in the “Ack” column. When an event is acknowledged, additional information can be recorded. The following information can be selected:

• Ack time stamp (system time)

• Ack comment (comment entered by the user)

• Ack OS user (computer and user name)

• Ack ibaHD user (connected ibaHD server and ibaHD user)

• Ack ibaPDA user (connected ibaPDA server and ibaPDA user)

Annotation column

Annotations can be entered in the HD trend graph and optional attachments can be saved. Annotations and attachments are treated like events. The HD event table can be used to query annotations and attachments.

Acknowledgment options

Enable this option to be able to acknowledge messages in the event table. If you disable this option, then a mouse click in the column Acknowledgment does nothing.

In addition, the user may be required to enter a comment in order to acknowledge the event. When acknowledging, a comment dialog box opens. If you disable this option, acknowledgment is completed without a comment.

You can allow user input in the comments dialog, or define comments in the “Drop-down comments” list, which can then be selected in the comment dialog's drop-down menu. Click on a line and enter a comment. You can use the buttons to the right of the list to delete selected comments (x) or change their order via the arrows.

Example comment dialog:

If multiple rows are selected when clicking an Acknowledgment checkbox, or the button on the toolbar is used to confirm all visible rows, you can enter a comment for all selected rows. Previously acknowledged lines are not overwritten.

Event field columns

For all event fields, columns can be created in the event table. The cells in this column display the unformatted values for the fields. If the columns for all fields are dynamically generated in the table, the columns are dynamically added or removed when adding or removing rows in the table. Event fields with the same name use the same column.

You can show and hide all fields defined in the various events as columns using the context menu of the event table.

It is also possible to manually select the fields for which columns are to be created. The fields can be selected in the list via a drop-down menu.
