Adding Alarm and Event Handling
The Alarm and Event Configuration aspect on the signal objects are used to create
events and alarms based on the properties received from the PLC.
The events and alarms are viewed and accessed by the operator using alarm and
event lists. A top level alarm list, which is handling all alarms in the installation,
is preconfigured. It is possible to configure other alarm lists on lower levels, for
example for a section of the site or a single motor. See the section about alarms in
the Industrial
more details.
To create an event or alarm the signal has to be configured, this is done in the Alarm
and Event Configuration aspect on an object type or on the individual signal
instance.
Object instances that generates events and alarms are recommended to be placed in
the Functional Structure to be able to have alarm lists that covers only parts of the
plant. The chapter Building the Functional Structure shows how to create an
appropriate functional structure.
