Disabled

Measuring point or device disabled (under setup)

Circle of any color (Yellow, Orange, Red, Blue)

Inhibited

Alarm is inhibited and thus suppressed. The alarm function will be resumed when the inhibition is no longer enabled. Even if the alarm is over, the inhibition will remain for the defined time.

The number of active alarms can be seen at any time in the top status line:

Figure 1: Current system alarms in the status line

 

The status of each device can also be seen directly under:

oThe "Chart" view, under "Groups and measuring points". If there is an alarm in a group, the group will show the highest alarm symbol. The measuring point will show its alarm.

oThe "Table" view, under "Groups and measuring points". If there is an alarm in a group, the group will show the highest alarm symbol. The measuring point will show its alarm.

oThe layout, under "Groups and measuring points". If there is an alarm in a group, the group will show the highest alarm symbol. The measuring point will show its alarm.

oThe events, you can select what alarms you wish to see (current and in the past).

oThe archive, you can see the events of an archived measuring point, thus the past alarms.

 

 

Inhibit Alarms

Every active alarm can be inhibited for a selectable time span by clicking the round information symbol. This function is available in all views.

 

No notification is emitted in this time. The alarm function is resumed as soon as the inhibit ends and the alarm is still active.

 

Special cases:

oIf an alarm ends during the inhibition, the inhibition remains for the set time.

oA measuring point can also be inhibited even if it is not in the alarm. This can be useful, for example, when carrying out a calibration and no alarm notification should be sent during the process.

 

 

Inhibit Groups

It is possible to inhibit multiple measurements, under the "Table" view, by selecting a number of measurement points (either with "Shift" or "Ctrl") and clicking on "Options" > "Inhibit".

Figure 2: Inhibit various measurement points under "Table" view

 

Via this inhibition, it is possible to inhibit either the measured value alarms or the technical alarms. This function can be used when service/calibration is being carried out on the devices/measurement points.
