Alarm Logging
Alarm logging provides you with a straightforward process for creating and maintaining records to analyze the alarm state of equipment and processes in your system. As a result, alarm logging helps you determine if action is required to repair or maintain your system.
The Database Logger enables you to:
- Log data about selected alarms or all alarms to an alarm log table.
- Save the log files, until specified criteria occur.
- Have the logged data discarded, based on specified criteria.
- Save the logged data to another file for future analysis.
You can display, print and analyze that information in a report that you create or in an Excel CIMPLICITY Alarm Report that is included in CIMPLICITY..
- Alarm ID,
- Time the Alarm was Generated,
- Alarm Class, Resource,
- Alarm Message,
- Alarm comments that are entered in the Alarm Viewer.
- Logged By
- Other optional attributes that you select.
