Print the Alarm List to File

To print an alarm list to file, follow the steps given below:

1.  Select the List Options button that represents the alarm list you wish to print to a file (see Changing the Category of Alarms Displayed in the Alarm List). If necessary, apply any filters or sorting criteria you require (see Sorting the Alarms in the Alarm List, or Filtering the Alarms in the Alarm List).

2.  Click the Print button that appears in the Display Manager's title bar. The Alarm List Print dialog opens as shown.

3.  Configure the alarms you wish to be printed to file by selecting the "All" radio button, or by selecting the "Range" radio button and entering a start and end date/time.

4.  Select the "Print To File" checkbox.

5.  Click the OK button. The Print to File dialog opens and displays the application directory, and the default name of the file to which the alarms are to be saved.

6.  Enter a name for the file in the File Name edit field. By default, the file name is set to "Alarms.PRN".

7.  Click the Save as type drop-down list. The available file types are printer file (.PRN), or text file (.TXT).

8.  Select the file type corresponding to the file type you wish the file to be formatted. The extension of the file changes accordingly (".PRN" or ".TXT").

9.  Click the Save button. The print file (or text file, depending upon the file type you've chosen) is saved to the location you've selected.
