4.10.1 Node Alarm Keyboard Access Settings
‘Node Alarm Keyboard Access Settings’ assigns permission to each keyboard that is allowed
to manage and view alarms on the selected network node.
A Visilynx 3 system can consist of up to 127 separate nodes. Each node can generate up to
1701 alarms. Not all users on other nodes will need to have access to these alarms. In the
example shown above, all 32 keyboards have been granted access to the alarms from Node
127.
This is the same list as is configured by the ‘Keyboard Node Alarm Access Settings’ screen
(see page 37), but arranged by node number rather than keyboard number.
