Event OperActivitySummary table

  • Last UpdatedApr 24, 2025
  • 3 minute read

The OperActivitySummary table in the Historical event database records the following operational events:

  • Application Related Alarms

  • Telemetry Alarms

  • Operator Commands

  • Alarm Acknowledgements

  • Sequence of events

Some information in Operator Activity Summary View can be localized. The OperActivityTypeDefine, AlarmInhibitTypeDefine and AlarmSourceTypeDefine tables hold the relationship between the fields that can be localized and the localization message IDs.

The OperActivityTypeDefineView, AlarmInhibitTypeDefineView and AlarmSourceTypeDefineView views show the relationship between the name of the type and the message with the same locale as your system's configuration.
