Using the CIM Display, Continued
One useful feature of the online help function of the CIM display is the
ability to get detailed descriptions of alarms as well as possible causes
and suggested corrective actions.
Alarm Help
To access alarm help, first load the alarm screen by selecting it from the
menu or from the toolbar on the right side of the screen. Next, touch the
help icon (
) on the upper right corner of the CIM display (or click on
the icon if using the emulator). This puts the software in the interactive
help mode. To see help for an alarm, click the “Description” field for that
alarm. This will display the alarm help screen.
In the figure below, the help icon was selected and then the “Description”
field for the first alarm on the list. This displayed the help text window in
the middle of the screen.

Note that this help box is displayed only when the “Description” field is
selected while in help mode. Selecting other fields for the alarm provides
help information describing what the field is used for (context sensitive
help described on the previous page), rather than information about the
alarm.
