The "Alarm Operation" function offers an overview display of the alarm statuses and a
simple way of acknowledging alarms for all associated points configured in the server.
In addition to the most important information on the point in question (address, status,
priority, etc.), the alarm list also contains the following fault status information:
•
Time and date when the last fault occurred.
•
Time and date when the last fault disappeared.
•
Time and date of the alarm acknowledgement and the code of the person who made
the acknowledgement.
•
Number of times that a fault has occurred since the last fault.
The background colour of the respective point provides visual information on its current
status. (Red = Faulty/unacknowledged, yellow = Faulty/acknowledged, etc.)
The sequence of the points in the alarm list can be established individually according to
optional criteria such as "Date/Time", "Address", or "Priority".
You can accept only a limited selection of points for the alarm list. The selection criteria
are the alarm status, the priority, and the address mask.
The individual alarms are acknowledged directly in the alarm list. If more than one alarm
must be acknowledged, a selection can be made according to priority and time span.
The "Point Information" window supplies detailed information on occurrence and
disappearance of faults for the selected point.
The alarm statistics, in the form of a table, informs on the number of currently existing
alarm statuses, subdivided according to priority.
