5.4.1 Alarm Master Setup
Alarm setup can be done through the Alarm Master Setup or can be done on an “as you go” basis through the
Channel Setup menu when defining or editing widgets.
To access the Alarm Master Setup dialog window:
Press the Utility Setup Menu icon on the
bottom left of the Task Bar.
Then press the Alarm Master Setup
icon to launch the Alarm Master Setup
dialog window as shown right.
This is the primary Alarm Setup dialog window. It
gives an overview of the 5 alarms for the selected
channel, showing the Type, SetPoint and whether
the alarm is enabled. The setup button allows each
alarm to be modified. Note that the enable
checkbox for each alarm channel is the status only,
if you need to change this you have to press the
setup button.
Setup: Proceed to set up the individual
alarms
– see below .
Channel: Below the overview is the Channel selection drop down box. This shows the current alarm setup
and allows the user to select any of the 18 channels. If you enter the setup from a specific channel, you
cannot change the channel.
Channel Enable: When checked, the alarms that are enabled for the channel will be active. When
unchecked, alarms for this channel are disabled. For an alarm to be active, the individual alarm must be
enabled AND the Channel Enable must be checked. (also see next)
Alarm Mute: When unchecked the alarms will function normally but the alarm will not sound – it will be
muted. The alarm status indicator will be amber.
Notify Enable: This enables or disables any email activity initiated by the Notify option in the Alarm Setup.
When unchecked no emails will be sent.
Master Enable: This enables or disables ALL ACTIVE alarms on ALL Channels. When unchecked, no alarms
will work and the alarm status indicator will be red continuously.
Exit: Pressing this button will exit the window, applying whatever changes have been made.
