Configure user-defined HiLo alarm limits

Note: In the following procedure, an analog point is used as an example. The procedure is the same for rate records, but slightly different for flowTotalConfig points (as described below). The Alarming tab in the analog Row Edit dialog box is opened through the analog table listing in the Advanced Database Editor (ADE). For general information on ADE, and further information on the analog table, refer to the Advanced Database Editor (ADE) Administrator documentation and RealTime tables, respectively.

1. Navigate to the Alarming tab in the analog Row Edit dialog box.

   Note: For flowTotalConfig points, navigate to the appropriate Calc. Element [0-3] tab in the flowTotalConfig Row Edit dialog box.

   

2. Select User Hi Alarm Check and/or User Low Alarm Check, as desired.

3. Enter a User Hi Alarm Limit value and/or a User Lo Alarm Limit value, as desired.
