Foxboro versions > 6.2 have a built in mechanism to log System Alarm messages to an ASCII file on the Sysmon host AW. Here is the procedure (perform on the sysmon host AW): 1. Create the directory /opt/fox/sysmgm/sysmon (do not confuse with /usr/fox/sysmgm/sysmon) 2. cd /opt/fox/sysmgm/sysmon 3. touch smon_log Any new System monitor alarms will now be appended to the smon_log file. = I have only tried it on AW51s, so I m unsure if this also works for AW70s. Cool, eh? I thought so.
