Note
Read the notes on using the internal memory
If too many alarms are written to the alarm buffer in short time intervals, the life of the
internal memory and thus the service life of the HMI device will be reduced.
When configuring alarms, read the notes on the internal memory in the section
"Memory concept (Page 61)".
