Process History View- How do I determine what shows up?

Version 13.3.1, PCSD-13.0.1

We have some control system upgrades coming up in the near future and we are trying to make sure we have all the data logged in the Process History View / Event Chronicle that we need.

How do you determine what shows and what doesn't, or maybe it happens in some automatic way? The snip below shows Alarm, Event, and Change Event types. 

When I add a new module do I need to turn on or activate certain parameters for events from that module to show?

Thanks!

  • The Process Area that contains the module needs to be assigned to the Alarms and Events of the Event Chronicle Node, in our case it is the ProPlus. Then any operator changes, alarms, events and downloads for that module will be logged in the Event Chronicle. If this was already setup for you it would appear to happen automatically.
    We use module templates to add new modules to the system. The templates already have alarms and historian points pre-configured so we don't have to add them manually every time.
