Option 3.1. Setup Button: Configure AMV Control/Stand-alone AMV Alarm Setups

Normally, all alarms for the roles assigned to your CIMPLICITY User ID are displayed on the Alarm Viewer screen.

Alarm filtering, which is configured in a Modify Setup dialog box, enables a user to filter the list by displaying certain subsets of alarms.

Authorized users can open the Modify Setup dialog box through the Workbench, the Alarm Viewer control or the Alarm Viewer. The procedure to open the Modify Setup dialog box and its setup options are slightly different based on the application through which it is opened.

Steps to open the Modify Setup dialog box and create alarm filter setups include:

Step 3.1.1 Select a filter to load or to modify.
Step 3.1.2 Modify the Alarm Viewer setup class list.
Step 3.1.3 Modify the Alarm Viewer setup resource list.
Step 3.1.4 Configure the AMV setup time, state and sort.
Step 3.1.5 Modify the Alarm Viewer Setup String Filters
Step 3.1.6 Create a new alarm filter setup.
Step 3.1.7 Delete an alarm filter setup.
Step 3.1.8 Select the default alarm filter setup.
Note: Only users who have been granted the Modify Alarm Setups privilege in the Role Properties dialog box can save a new setup, load a different setup or make the current setup the default.
