Follow these steps to add Alarm History logic to your routine.
1. Add the following rung to your program for each individual device Add-On Instruction.
The three tags pointed to were created already by your Add-On Instruction and exist in the tag database.
You will need to edit the tag name prefixes to adjust for the name given to your Add-On Instruction.
This example uses an Add-On Instruction named Motor_With_284.
2. Create the following controller scope tags (which will be used to pass data to the alarm summary in FT
ME) for the different device trigger types.
• For the Move instruction, the destination tag
must be created as one of the controller
scoped tags.
• For the copy instruction, the source and
destination tags must be created as a
controller scoped tag, type STRING.
Motor_With_284 is the device Add-On
Instruction name used for the specific device
in your program. The tag type must be
STRING.
3. In the controller tag database, enter the names you need your devices to appear with in the Alarm History
faceplate, into the source string tag you created in the COP instruction.
4. Add the following rung to clear your Alarm Trigger tag when a fault reset has been commanded.
The ArmorStart Trigger tag is being cleared by this rung. You will need to edit the tag name prefixes to
adjust for the name given to your Add-On Instruction. This example uses ArmorStart_With_284.
