Use Plant SCADA Studio to Configure Alarms

You can use the System Model activity in Plant SCADA Studio to add alarms to your project. Each alarm record is added using a properties form that reflects a particular alarm type (see Alarms).

There are properties that are common to all alarm types. These include:

• Alarm Tag (see Name an Alarm Tag)

• Alarm Name (see Use an Alarm Name to Describe an Alarm Tag)

• Category (see Assign an Alarm to an Alarm Category)

• Cluster Name (see Assign an Alarm to a Cluster)

• Equipment properties (see Associate an Alarm with Equipment).

Each configured alarm type also includes specific properties. For more information, see:

• Add a Digital Alarm

• Add a Time Stamped Alarm

• Add an Analog Alarm

• Add an Advanced Alarm

• Add a Multi-Digital Alarm

• Add a Time Stamped Digital Alarm

• Add a Time Stamped Analog Alarm

• Add a Double Point Status Alarm
