The alarm indicators are color-coded to display the severity of the alarm. The alarm severity level and its color are configured by the Administrator.

The table below shows an example of alarm severity levels and their default configured colors.

Note: The severity of alarms may also be indicated by audible alarm messages or sound, depending on the system’s configuration.

Depending on your setup, your Alarm Summary and Point Alarm Summary displays may have a different appearance. These priority displays are provided by your Administrator to accommodate your organization’s unique needs. The Priority Displays, if configured, can be accessed by clicking the Priority Display icon on the Pump Control windows.

Setting the Priority Display in Advanced Database Editor (ADE) defines which window will open when the Priority Display icon is clicked.

For example, if you decided to make the custom display PROJECT_DISPLAY123 the priority display by entering PROJECT_DISPLAY123 in the Priority Display field on the Main tab of the tank Row Edit in ADE, every time you select the Priority Display icon, the display PROJECT_DISPLAY123 will open.
