[Alarm]SummarySort

This parameter allows you to customize the order in which alarms will be displayed on the historical event pages. It is important to use this parameter if you have remote I/O devices in your system and you want to be certain that alarms are listed according to the exact time they occurred as opposed to the time they were reported by the alarms server.

You can choose to organize alarms according to the time each alarm was activated (OnTime), inactivated (OffTime), or the time the alarm was acknowledged by the operator (AckTime). Changing this parameter at runtime will not affect the current way alarms are displayed. It will only take affect at Plant SCADA start up and is usually used in conjunction with the [Alarm]SummarySortMode parameter.

Note: This parameter can also be applied to a specific cluster or alarm server process. For more information, see Configure Alarm Parameters for a Specific Cluster or Process.

Allowable Values:

• 0 None

• 1 OnTime

• 2 OffTime (obsolete in v2015)

• 3 AckTime (obsolete in v2015)

Default Value:
