Property Description

<UCPTlevel>

Enter an alarm level for the condition set, in the range 0-255. The

level assigned to a condition set will determine which alarm

destinations will be used when an alarm occurs that is based on
that condition set.
For each alarm destination you create, you will specify a range of

levels. For example, you could set up one destination set for the
alarm conditions using levels 0-125, and another for the alarm

conditions using levels 126-255. Alarm condition sets assigned levels
0-125 would use the first destination, and alarm condition sets

assigned level 126-255 would use the second destination set.
NOTE: If you use the

i.

LON 100 Configuration Software to modify

the configuration of an Alarm Notifier after creating it with the

SOAP/XML interface, and the <UCPTlevel> property had been set

to a value greater than 1, the <UCPTlevel> property will be reset to
0.

<UCPTalarmText>

The user-defined text will be used to describe the alarm condition in
the Alarm Notifier’s log file. This can be a maximum of 201

characters long.

<UCPTactAlarmType>
for active
conditon sets.

<UCPTpasAlarmType>
for passive

conditon sets.

Specify one or more alarm types for this condition. If the status

(UCPTpointStatus) of an input data point is updated and matches
any of these types, then the alarm will be declared active or passive,

depending on the conditon type. The valid alarm type identifiers are:
AL_VALUE_INVALID, AL_CONSTANT, AL_OFFLINE, AL_NUL,
AL_NO_CONDITION, AL_TOT_SVC_ALM_1.

AL_TOT_SVC_ALM_2, AL_TOT_SVC_ALM_3,

AL_LOW_LMT_CLR_1, AL_LOW_LMT_CLR_2,
AL_HIGH_LMT_CLR_1, AL_HIGH_LMT_CLR_2,

AL_LOW_LMT_ALM_1, AL_LOW_LMT_ALM_2,

AL_HIGH_LMT_ALM_1, AL_HIGH_LMT_ALM_2, AL_FIR_ALM,
AL_FIR_PRE_ALM, AL_FIR_TRBL, AL_FIR_SUPV,

AL_FIR_TEST_ALM, AL_FIR_TEST_PRE_ALM,
AL_FIR_ENVCOMP_MAX, AL_FIR_MONITOR_COND,

AL_FIR_MAINT_ALERT
You should consider using less severe conditions, such as
AL_VALUE_INVALID or AL_OFFLINE, for your passive condition

sets, and more severe conditions such as AL_HIGH_LMT_ALM_1

for your active conditon sets.

8.2.1.2.4 Active and Passive Alarm Destinations

You can define one or more <AlarmDest> elements per Alarm Notifier. These elements

define the active and passive destinations for the Alarm Notifier.
You can optionally fill in the <UCPTdestEnable> property for each <AlarmDest> element.
You can reference a SNVT_Switch data point by its <UCPTpointName> with this property.

The <AlarmDest> will enabled if that data point is set to 100.0 1, or disabled if that data

point is set to 0.0 0. You can set this data point with a L

ON

W

ORKS

switch or with the Event

Scheduler application. In this fashion, you can enable or disable destination sets as you like.
