Accessing Alarm Counter InformationYou can use alarm counters in a display to quickly identify the presence of acknowledged and unacknowledged alarms in your system. iFIX provides two ways to access alarm counter information:
The method you choose depends on your needs. If you want your database to react based on one or more of the alarm counters, assign one or more blocks to the SIM driver. The database logic processes alarms even when the WorkSpace is not running. If you want to display a count of alarms in the WorkSpace or use animations, access the counter directly from a tag field. You can use any combination of the two methods listed above. Each method returns the same information, and there are no restrictions on combining methods. Each method is described in further detail in the following sections. See Also |
