ATTENTION
With R400, you can disable or enable individual block errors. This is applicable for
Function blocks, Transducer blocks, and Resource blocks and only when block alarm
is enabled in
Alarms
tab.
Following are some of the considerations for disabling individual block errors.
For the blocks such as AI block configured in Control Modules, when an inactive
block error is disabled and if the block error turns active, the
Alarm Display
will not
display the alarm and the
Event Summary
will not display the alarm event. For the
devices only blocks such as, Resource or Transducer blocks, block error alarm
appearance in the
Alarm Display
or
System Status Display
is affected.
Regardless of disabling, the individual block error status is displayed on the block’s
Maintenance
tab.
When an active block error is disabled, the
Alarm Display
or
System Status
Display
alarm returns to normal, and
Event Summary
displays the alarm action
as OK.
In
the
Alarm Display
or
System Status Display
, when you acknowledge block
error alarms that have returned to normal, the alarms disappear and
Event
Summary
displays the acknowledged alarms.
When the disable is removed for an active block error, the
Alarm Display
or
System Status Display
displays the alarm as active and
Event Summary
receives the event for that particular alarm.
