The alarm banner graphic object
The [ALARM BANNER] display contains an alarm banner graphic object, which lists the
most recent alarm message. You can set up the alarm banner to queue new alarms until the
shown alarm has been acknowledged, or to show new alarms as they occur. The alarm
banner in the [ALARM BANNER] display is set up to show new alarms as they occur and
to show active alarms only (but you can edit it, if desired).
For more information about the alarm banner, see page 9-34.
Buttons in the [ALARM BANNER] display
The [ALARM BANNER] display contains alarm buttons for acknowledging, clearing,
and silencing alarms, as well as a button for closing the display. For information about
how the buttons work, see page 9-36.
The [ALARM MULTI-LINE] display
The Libraries folder contains a graphic display called [ALARM MULTI-LINE]. The
[ALARM MULTI-LINE] display allows the operator to see multiple alarms at once.
You can use the [ALARM MULTI-LINE] display as is, or modify the display. For
example, you can select which alarm triggers’ alarms to show in the list.
