Tags: Alarms Events Objects

Alarms are a two-part feature:

1. The Event (Alarm) Log itself is where the alarms are configured.


2. The Alarm Bar, Alarm Display, and Event Display Objects control how the alarms are viewed.


• The Alarm Bar displays the active alarms in a scrolling marquee, one after the other.
• The Event Display shows a history of the alarms including when the alarm was triggered, when it was acknowledged, and when it was cleared (returned to normal). It can also show the occurrence count and the elapsed time.

Because features and functionality vary between our Basis, Advanced, and cMT Smart Series HMIs, refer to the software and programming manual for more information on this feature..
