The Raw Data Log displays details regarding alarms and other signals received by Manitou. The data is displayed in the original format received by the Front End Processors (FEPs). The Raw Data Log is primarily used for diagnostic purposes but can be useful in tracing a signal from a specific customer.

Searching by FEP, Receiver Line Prefix, and Transmitter ID
An FEP list similar to the Navigator window displays to the left of the log list. This list displays all FEPs and their associated receivers. It allows a user to determine the source of any raw data displayed.
A user can access Raw Data for a target as broad as an individual FEP, or as narrow as an individual Receiver Line.
To search for Raw Data associated with a specific FEP, Receiver, or Receiver Line, select the appropriate piece of hardware from the FEP list, and click "Search".
Result: Your filtered search results display.
To search for Raw Data associated with a specific Receiver Line Prefix or a Transmitter ID, select the Receiver Line Prefix from the dropdown menu, or enter the Transmitter ID into its field, and click "Search".
Result: Your filtered search results display.
Note: Users may only search using one FEP, Receiver, or Receiver Line at a time.
