Delete Unused Alarm Triggers and Tags

Follow these steps to delete any alarm triggers for hardware devices not used in your application. This could
improve performance of your PanelView Plus terminal communication.

1.

Expand the Alarms folder.

2.

Double-click Alarm Setup.

The Alarm Setup dialog box opens.

3.

Click the Triggers tab.

4.

Select any unused alarm trigger tags
from the Select trigger organizer.

Unused trigger tags are any
associated devices not configured in
your Logix Designer project.

For the Widg-O-matic application example, these alarm triggers are used, so all other trigger tags can be
removed.

5.

Click Remove.

6.

Repeat

step 4

and

step 5

for all unused trigger tags.

7.

Click OK in the Alarm Setup dialog box to save edits.
