Remote Tags Tag Direction Description Notes
Ack. All Alarms Tag Controller ➾ Terminal Name of address where the controller sets
a bit (1) or value to acknowledge all active
alarms regardless of the trigger. The
terminal monitors this address for a
nonzero value.
When the terminal sees a nonzero value, it
writes the Acknowledge All Value defined
for each trigger to the Ack tag address
defined for each trigger.
The Alarm Banner is removed from the
terminal display and all alarms not
acknowledged in the Alarm List are flagged
as acknowledged.
The value is held at the Ack tag address
until the Acknowledge Hold Time expires
and the controller has cleared the Ack All
Alarms tag. It is the responsibility of the
controller’s program to clear the value.
The Ack tag and Acknowledge All Value for
alarm triggers are defined on the Alarm
Triggers tab.
While the Ack All Alarms address contains
a nonzero value, the operator cannot
acknowledge alarms locally (at the
terminal) if the Ack tag is defined.
Ack. All Handshake Tag Terminal ➾ Controller Name of address where the terminal
toggles a bit to indicate that it received the
Ack All Alarms value from the controller. This tag is optional and used only in conjunc-
tion with the Ack. All Alarms tag.
Clear All Alarms Tag Controller ➾ Terminal Name of address where the controller sets
a bit or nonzero value to clear all alarms in
the terminal.
The Alarm Banner is removed from the
terminal display and all alarms are
removed from the Alarm List.
Clear All
Alarms Handshake Tag Terminal ➾ Controller Name of address where the terminal
toggles a bit to indicate that it received the
Clear All Alarms value from the controller. This tag is optional and used only in conjunc-
tion with the Clear All Alarms tag.
