Creating Alarms

Publication 2711-6.0

Controller Acknowledges All Alarms for all Triggers

The controller acknowledges all alarms in the terminal by setting a
bit or value at the Ack. All Alarms tag address. The terminal sees a
nonzero value at this address and then writes the Acknowledge All
Value for each trigger to the Ack address for each trigger.

Optional Fields are enabled on the Alarm Setup tab and the Alarm
Triggers tab.

The PanelView reads a nonzero value at the
RemoteAckAll address.

Alarm Configuration
4 alarms are assigned to the Extruder1 trigger, each with a different trigger value
– 6 alarms are assigned to the Extruder2 trigger, each with a different trigger value
– All alarm messages are configured to display and must be acknowledged
– A Remote Ack tag, Ack tag, and Acknowledge All Value are defined for each trigger
– An Ack. All tag is defined on the Alarm Setup dialog. The controller uses this tag to acknowledge all alarms in the terminal

All alarms activated by the Extruder1 and Extruder2
triggers are acknowledged in the Alarm List.

The PanelView notifies the controller by writing
– Acknowledge All Value 99 for the Extruder1 trigger to the trigger’s Ack address (Ex1Ack)
– Acknowledge All Value 100 for the Extruder2 trigger to the trigger’s Ack address (Ex2Ack)

The controller sets a bit at the Ack. All tag address
(RemoteAckAll), defined on the Alarm Setup tab, to
acknowledge all active alarms for all triggers.
