Explanation

Audit "Real Time" seems to be off

Loading (opening) an audit file.

There is probably a mismatch between what you think a station's time zone's settings are and what the DCS, Maestro or XStudio unit's settings really are.

Solution:

Open the Preferences dialog and change the station's time zone or observe DST settings, preferably one at a time. Apply the changes and close the Preferences dialog. The data's times will be updated to reflect your new time zone settings. See the topic Audit Times Information for a more detailed explanation of audit times.


Audit "Real Time" is off no matter what time zone settings I use.

Loading (opening) an audit file.

If you have eliminated the possibility of a mismatch between a configured station's time zone settings and the system that created the audit data file, the problem is likely related to incomplete time zone information in your PC's registry.

Solution:

Examine your PC's registry to verify that all current time zone information is up-to-date. See the topic Time Zone Information for more details.


Total Records & Displayed Records do not match

Loading (opening) an audit file.

This is not necessarily a displayed error message, but you may notice that the two counts on the status bar do not match, even though you have "---- All Data ----" selected as the report template.

Solution:

First, make sure you select the "---- All Data ----" template. If the total records count and displayed records count do not match, the problem is most likely that a portion of the audit file data has been corrupted in some way and is unreadable. The data you are seeing reflects only records that are valid. The difference between the total number of records and the displayed number of records is the number of "bad" or unrecognizable records. There is no way to fix the bad data so it can be displayed.


"Invalid Class Typecast"

Printing an audit report.

When attempting to print an audit report, this message occurs. The cause is the current default printer is not available.

Solution:

To correct the problem, you must close ezAudit and select a different default printer.

ezAudit requires that a printer be defined in the operating system in order for any of the print functions to work properly.
