Alarm Counts

Alarm Counts are numeric values in FIN Builder that represent the values of the

corresponding resident points in the field panel. Alarm Count data can be used with

FIN Builder Actions or displayed directly on the graphic.

Alarm Counts can be bound to Labels or Numeric Editors.

Alarm Data

Alarm data includes a list of unacknowledged alarms from the host panel and its FLN

devices, including both intrinsic and Event Enrollment alarms.

This data can be bound to a Grid component. When the graphic is displayed, the user

can view and acknowledge alarms from this grid.

This Alarm Data is static by default; it does not update automatically. To have the Grid

update periodically, a Timer component must be added to the graphic.

NOTICE

Refreshing a grid containing a large number of Alarms may impact the performance

of the controller. When adding a Timer component to the graphic, take care to select

an appropriate Interval for the timer.
