LOSS OF CONTROL

  • Do not use Plant SCADA's alarming system as the primary alert mechanism for safety-related alarms or notifications (that is, those classified as critical to process safety, the protection of the plant and equipment, or the protection of human life).

  • Do not use Plant SCADA's audible alarm functionality as a replacement for safety-related warning systems critical to process safety, the protection of the plant and equipment or the protection of human life.

  • Safety-related alarms and notifications should be independent and separate from the process control system. They should be implemented in the form of a stand-alone physical alarm system driving individual discrete alarm annunciators.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Note: This parameter is available only to projects based on Tab_Style templates.

Allowable Values:

Any valid wav file name, including a full directory path.

Note: You can use Plant SCADA predefined path substitutions to locate a wav file; for example:
Sound1=[RUN]:Alarm1.wav.

Default Value:

(no sound)
