RPSD Key to alter Key parameters. If AUX Security is enabled, the administrative 
user must enter a password (or use a PassKey device) associated with the user 
ID.

H—History Display
Syntax and Parameters
h [-] [ALL] 
Description
Use the History Display command to display a log history of the last 1400 
messages generated by or sent to the RPSD Key device. The messages appear 
in ascending order, twenty to a page. See Table 5-1 in Chapter 5, 
“Troubleshooting” for an explanation of the status messages sent to the Key by 
the Lock when a connection attempt fails.
To protect the integrity of the log history, a Message Authentication Code is 
generated for each message created by or sent to the Lock or Key.
A Sequence Number is assigned to each message. The sequence runs from 000 
to 999 and then restarts at 000. The Sequence Number is appended to the 
Message Authentication Code; the fields are delimited with a period.
When you list the report with the ALL command, toggle   to pause and 
resume the report. The [-] and [ALL] parameters may be used in combination.

The Fields of the History Display screen are:
nMessage Authentication Code and Sequence Number—The first number 
in a log history entry is actually two numbers separated by a decimal 
point: the Message Authentication Code and the Sequence Number.
nDate—The second field provides the date the message was generated.
nTime—The second field provides the time the message was generated in 
24-hour clock format.
nMessage—The last field contains the status message.
Failed attempts at access generate a message at the RPSD Lock that is sent to 
the RPSD Key. There are nine causes for such failure, as described in Table 5-1, 
found in Chapter 5, “Troubleshooting.”
