​.AlarmDscDisabled dotfield

Indicates whether or not the tag can generate discrete alarms.

Category

Alarms

Usage

TagName.AlarmDscDisabled

Parameter

TagName

Any discrete or indirect discrete tag or alarm group.

Remarks

When .AlarmDscDisabled is set to 1, all discrete condition alarms and events are ignored. They are not stored in alarm memory, nor are they written to a disk. It is very important to re-enable events/alarms, whenever possible, to avoid data loss.

This is the opposite of the .AlarmDscEnabled dotfield.

Data Type

Discrete (read/write)

Valid Values

1 = Disable alarms

0 = Enable alarms (default)

Example

The following example enables discrete alarms of the Tag2 tag:

Tag2.AlarmDscDisabled=0;
