3.1.4 SUMMARY MENU (Cont.)
ALARM SUMMARY PAGE
As shown in fi gure 3.1.4d, below, the alarm summary page contains the following information for the cur-
rent group:
1. Alarm identifi er. This appears as a point ID, followed by the relevant alarm number in parentheses.
For example, Alarm 1 on maths channel 6 would appear as: D6 (1). Maths channels are prefi xed by
‘D’. Totalisers are prefi xed by ‘T’ and Counters are prefi xed by ‘C’. Input channels are not prefi xed.
2 Alarm threshold for absolute alarms only
3 The current process value for the point
4 An alarm symbol (see
Table 3
). Alarm symbols fl ash until acknowledged.
Notes:
1. Alarms are always listed in Point/Alarm order with input channels fi rst, followed by derived
channels, totalisers and counters, if these options are fi tted.
2 When the alarm source returns to its non-alarm state: Unlatched alarms are removed from
the list whether or not they have been acknowledged; latched alarms remain displayed until
acknowledged. See
section 4.3.3
for a description of alarm types and actions.
3. There are no time or history components associated with the Alarm Summary. If Alarm mes-
sages have been enabled in the relevant group’s confi guration (
section 4.3.2
), then alarm initia-
tion/acknowledgement times and dates can be found from the trend and trend history displays,
described in
section 3.4
or in Message log described later in this section.
4. If an alarm is active on a channel which is not included in any group, then although the channel
alarm symbol will fl ash, the alarm will not appear in any of the alarm summary pages.
