Description: The following subsection was added after “Alarm Banner”
on page 1-2.
The Alarm Banner and Methods of Alarm Generation
An alarm can be generated by two methods but not all information that
appears in the alarm list will be the same. Alarms can be generated
from specifications on the CB Continuous Diagram page. The first alarm
listed in F igure 1.1A is an example of a banner created by this method.
When the CB Discrete Diagram (see F igure 1.2B) is used to create logic
step generated alarms, the alarm banner does not have enough space
to show units. The second alarm listed in Figure 1.1A is an example of a
banner created by this method.
