Viewing Fault History and Resolution

If a fault occurs more than once, you can view a report describing previous fault resolutions. You can then resolve the current fault in the same way.

NOTE: The system maintains the fault history for a user-specified period of time. Click here for instructions for changing the history data retention period.

Unresolved Fault Report

To view a comments file from the Fault Help system:

  1. Select the unresolved fault from the Fault History window.

If no comments file exists, you can choose to create one. Use the comments file to record resolutions for specific faults.
