Working with Alarms
During operation, the SceneScan system produces an audit trail of event messages. These
range in increasing order of severity from: Information, Warning, and Error to Fatal. As these
alarms are raised, the Dashboard lists them within the Alarms pane.
Click on any alarm to display details about it in the right-hand section of the Alarm pane:
Filtering Alarms
A filter is available to suppress the display of particular alarm by severity. By default, the filter
is activated and causes information messages to be hidden.
Click on the Alarm Filter button to toggle between activated
and de-activated
.
Click on the Filter Selection button to choose which types of alarm are to be filtered out:
Alarm types that are ticked are always displayed in the alarms list; un-selected types are
hidden when the filter is activated.
The severity and current state of an alarm are reflected in its colour and shape:
•
Information—grey symbols
•
Warning—orange symbols
•
Error and Fatal—red symbols
The ‘Play’ symbol indicates that an alarm condition is persisting. These are known as Active
alarms. An alarm in this state will show a Start time but not a Stop time.
The ‘Stop’ symbol means that the alarm condition no longer exists, i.e. it has Stopped,
therefore the alarm will show both Start and Stop times.
The ‘Pause’ symbol indicates an instantaneous alarm. In this case, the Start and Stop
times are identical.
When an Error or Fatal alarm is raised, the Advanced button glows red. Once the glowing
Advanced button has been clicked, it will take you to the Alarms pane. If the pane is
closed, the Advanced button returns to its normal grey shading.
Fatal Alarms indicate a serious problem with the SceneScan system. Users should review
the alarm details and follow any recommendations listed. Typically these involve powering
down the Sensor and restarting it, along with restarting the Dashboard. If necessary contact
Support.
