In addition, each alert is categorized as follows according to IEC62923-1:
Category A: alert for which graphical information at the task station directly assigned to the function generating
the alert is necessary, as decision support for the evaluation of the alert related condition
Category B: alert where no additional information for decision support is necessary besides the information
which can be presented at the CAM(central alert management) system.
