Echelon i.LON 100 e2 Internet Server - Manual (Page 95)

<Alarm> element are initially defined when you create the Alarm Generator. You can write
to them with the AlarmGeneratorSet function. Table 22 describes these properties.
When creating or writing to an Alarm Generator with the AlarmGeneratorSet function, all
properties are mandatory unless otherwise noted. For more information on the
AlarmGeneratorSet function, see AlarmGeneratorSet on page 7-16.
Table 22 AlarmGeneratorGet Output Properties
Property Description
<UCPTindex> The index number assigned to the Alarm Generator must be in the range of
0-32,767. As mentioned earlier, you can use the AlarmGeneratorSet
function to create a new Alarm Generator, or to modify an existing Alarm
Generator. If you do not specify an index number in the <Data> parameter
you supply to AlarmGeneratorSet, the function will create a new Alarm
Generator using the first available index number.
If you specify an index number that is already being used, the function will
overwrite the configuration of the Alarm Generator using that index
number with the settings defined in the <Data> parameter.
<UCPTlastUpdate> Optional. A timestamp indicating the last time the configuration of the
Alarm Generator was updated. This timestamp uses the following format:
YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ
The first segment of the time stamp (YYYY-MM-DD) represents the date
the configuration of the Alarm Generator was last updated. The second
segment (THH:MM:SS) represents the time of day the configuration of the
Alarm Generator was last updated, in UTC (Coordinated Universal Time).
UTC is the current term for what was commonly referred to as Greenwich
Meridian Time (GMT). Zero (0) hours UTC is midnight in Greenwich
England, which lies on the zero longitudinal meridian. Universal time is
based on a 24 hour clock, therefore, an afternoon hour such as 4 pm UTC
would expressed as 16:00 UTC. The Z appended to the timestamp indicates
that it is in UTC.
For example, 2002-08-15T10:13:13Z indicates a UTC time of 10:13:13 AM
on August 15, 2002.
<UCPTfbName> The functional block name assigned to the Alarm Generator in L ON M AKER .
You can write to this property, but each time you use the i. LON 100
Configuration Software to view the Alarm Generator, it will be reset to
match the functional block name defined in L
ON M AKER .
<UCPTdescription> Optional. A user-defined description of the Alarm Generator. This can be a
maximum of 228 characters long.
<SCPTalrmIhbT> The time period for which alarm generation is to be inhibited after the
application is enabled. This period must be entered using the following
format:
DAYS HOURS:MINUTES:SECONDS.MILLISECONDS
For example, 3 13:44:02.155 indicates a time period of 3 days, 13 hours, 44
minutes and 2.155 seconds.
