8.2.1.2.3 Active and Passive Alarm Condition Sets

Table 35 describes the properties that you must define within each <ActiveAlarm> and

<PassiveAlarm> element. As described earlier in this chapter, each of these elements defines
an active or passive alarm condition set for the Alarm Notifier.
If an input data point is updated and meets the conditions defined for any of the active

condition sets, it will be considered an active alarm, and the active alarm destinations will be
used for the alarm notification. If an input data point is updated and meets the conditions

defined for any of the passive condition sets, it will be considered an passive alarm, and the
passive alarm destinations will be used for the alarm notification.
The next section, Active and Passive Alarm Destinations, describes how you can define the

active and passive destination sets for an Alarm Notifier.
