Monitor Runtime

There are two types of runtime information you can use to identify and resolve operational problems:

• Hardware alarms

• Log files.

Hardware alarms are typically displayed on a dedicated alarm page to alert operators to current problems (see Alarms).

Log files are a record of time-stamped system data that can be analyzed to determine the cause of a problem (see Log Files).

This information can be analyzed directly to identify problems, or you can use the Plant SCADA Kernel to perform advanced debugging (see Debug Runtime).
