About Alarm Classes
You can group Alarms with similar characteristics by Alarm Class.
You can then assign:
- An order or priority to each Alarm Class. The order is a number from 0 to 99, where 0 is the highest priority and 99 is the lowest priority.
- Colors and blinking that provide immediate visual recognition of different levels in the alarm class state.
For example, an alarm class may be defined as a high priority alarm. The alarm state may be in a High state.
- Audio support that provides immediate recognition when an alarm in the class is generated.
Important: The default number of alarm classes is 550. This number can be changed by adding a MAX_ALARM_CLASSES parameter to a globals.ini file.
