Configure the Archiving Parameters

To archive events, you firstly need to confirm that the following parameters are configured correctly:

Example

The diagram below demonstrates the following scenario:

If archiving is manually triggered on Saturday 18 August 15:00:00, any data reported after midnight on Saturday 4 August will remain viewable via the Alarm Summary or SOE pages for two weeks. Any data reported before midnight on Saturday the 4th will be deleted.

Data that was reported between midnight on Saturday the 4th and midnight on Saturday the 11th is marked for archiving and is read only.

The data reported after midnight Saturday 11 August and the current time is unavailable for archiving as this data is still writable.

Note:
1. Check that the period of time set for the "ArchiveAfter" parameter is shorter than the time specified for "KeepOnlineFor". If this is not the case, an out-of-range hardware alarm will be raised.
2. The information available on your active and disabled alarm pages is classified as active data. For data integrity, ArhiveAfter needs to be configured to be longer than the lifetime of the active events.
