Problems with displaying alarms


Recommended Posts

I have a problem with displaying the alarms on Vision OPLC V570.To display the alarm screen,use the "SHOW ALARM" function and specific display "Alarm detail". The problem is that this is the way to the screen only display the alarm with ID number=0. Alarms with different ID number than 0 haven't show on the alarm screen.They have status "pending" and haven't displaying on the screen. My question is, how that displaying alarms with different ID number than ID 0 on the alarms screen whe condition "alarm trigger " for them is filled " alarm trigger is on"

Has anyone got a solution to this, I have a V1040 with the same problem.

When I want to show alarm id=0 no problem.

Alarms with any other ID will not show.

I have had to make ID-0 a common alarm and also trigger it with any other alarm in order to ger the other alarms to display.

Hi,

The Show Alarms function is defined to display all the active alarms as long as one of them is the alarm whose ID was entered to the function.

You can basically use MI instead of contact ID0 and then each time new alarm is triggered you can keep in this MI the last alarm ID. (you can use FB events for this purpose.

The other option is to use the Show Groups function which displays the group which was entered to it.

The best use of alarms is a topic I have looked at. I feel I don't know this as well as I should, so a while ago I made the attached application note, to try and summarise the important points.

I hope it also helps.

I would value any comments, and will happily correct any errors.
