4.3.8 MESSAGES (Cont.)
EXAMPLE
To confi gure Message 2 to read “The value of Chan two = (Value channel 2) & Tot one = (Value totaliser
1)”
Before confi guring the message:
In channel confi guration:
Set channel 2 descriptor to: Chan two
Set Channel 2 alarm job to:
Category: Message
Send message(s) to: All Groups
First message: 2) Message 2
Last Message: 2) Message 2
On: Active
In Totaliser confi guration:
Set Totaliser 1 descriptor to: Tot one
In Messages confi guration:
1. Select Message 2.
2. Access the Symbols keyboard (
section 3.3.1
) and enter, without spaces, {}={}&{}={}
3. Access the Numeric keyboard and insert 1, 2, 3, 4 within the braces to give: {1}={2}&{3}={4}
4. Access the Alphabet keyboard, and insert text and spaces: The value of {1} = {2} & {3} = {4}
5. Set ‘Replace {1}’ to “Source Descriptor’
6. Set ‘Replace {2}’ to ‘Source Value’
7. Set ‘Replace {3}’ to ‘Specifi ed Descriptor’
8. Set ‘{3} source’ to Tot one
9. Set ‘Replace {4}’ to ‘Specifi ed Value’
10. Set ‘{4} source’ to ‘Tot one’
The result of this is that, should the channel 2 alarm go active, the following message would be sent to all
groups, appear on the ‘chart’ and become part of all groups’ histories:
18/10/01 11:19:58 The value of Chan two = 6.0˚C & Tot one = 3383.8073 Units
Note: On some models, the message may be wider than the screen. If necessary, the message
can be shortened (e.g. use ‘Ch2’ instead of ‘Chan two’), or it can be viewed in full, either in Mes-
sage log, (
section 3.1.4
) or by using
Review Software
, if available.
