H1 Device Alarms
AMS Device Manager supports monitoring a subset of H1 device alarms. To make use of this functionality
you need to enable this feature in the AMS Device Manager and to configure the FG-200 and the attached
H1 devices accordingly. Note that within AMS Device Manager alarms are designated as "Alerts". Activate
this setting with Enable HSE Alarms in the General Settings web page of the FG-200.
We recommend activating Visitor Mode in the General settings web page. Thus you disable the alarm
configuration of H1 devices. This would prevent an impact on an existing device configuration but could
lead to situations where it is not possible to receive alarms from some H1 devices. To display which
devices are affected go to Configuration
à
Fieldbus
à
Device and search in column "Alarm configured"
for the respective device.
AMS Device Manager is supporting standard Fieldbus Foundation alarm messaging using the UDP protocol,
but it has an preconfigured UDP multicast address (239.255.0.33) and UDP port (45000) for the reception
of the alarm messages. This is used as default in the FG-200 but could be altered if a future AMS Device
Manager version would expect a different multicast address or UDP port by changing the settings in the
following web page.
