Revert alarm status handling to InTouch 7.1 behavior

For InTouch 7.11 and later, the default behavior when a HiHi, LoLo, MinDev, or MajDev alarm occurs is to reset the In Alarm, ACK, and $NewAlarm status of Hi, Lo, MajDev, or MinDev alarms, respectively. For InTouch 7.1 and older versions, these alarm statuses were not affected by the occurence of a HiHi, LoLo, MinDev, or MajDev alarm.
To support legacy applications that expect Hi, Lo, MajDev, or MinDev alarms to maintain their In Alarm, ACK, and $NewAlarm status despite the occurrence of the other alarms, the InTouch.ini file can include an IT71StatusFlag parameter.
To force the alarm handling to operate as it did in InTouch 7.1 and older versions
-
Enter the following line in the InTouch.ini file:
IT71StatusFlags=1
To change the alarm handling back to the default operation for InTouch 7.11 and later
-
Enter the following line in the InTouch.ini file:
IT71StatusFlags=0
For more information about how to edit the InTouch.ini file to configure this and other InTouch operating parameters, see AVEVA™ InTouch HMI Application Development Guide.
