The adetect Row Edit is a child record of the Pipeline table. For more information on how to access child records of the Pipeline table, see Opening the Pipe Segment Record.
The table below compares fields that can be configured on the Advanced Database Editor (ADE) adetect Row Edit record with the Batch Tracking Compiler (BTC) attributes.
|
BTC Attributes |
ADE adetect Row Edit |
Description |
|---|---|---|
|
ADETECTTYPE |
Anomaly Detect Type |
This field defines the type of the anomaly detect. For more information, see Understand Anomaly Detect Batch Tracking Compiler (BTC) attributes. |
|
ALMINH |
Inhibit Alarm |
The Inhibit Alarm dropdown menu on the adetect Row Edit dialog allows you to inhibit alarms associated with the anomaly record. |
|
ANMTYPE |
Anomaly Type |
The field defines the nature of the anomaly type. |
|
BMSG |
Base message |
This is the standard RealTime database (RTDB) field flag.bmsg. If ADETECTTYPE is set to Unspecified (for basic anomaly detection deadbands), use adetect. If ADETECTTYPE is set to Launcher, Detector, or Receiver (for enhanced anomaly detection deadbands), use adetectEnhanced. |
|
DETECT |
Name |
Name of the pipeline being edited. |
|
DESCRIPTION |
Description |
Standard description field. |
|
EVTINH |
Inhibit Events |
The Inhibit Alarm dropdown menu on the adetect Row Edit dialog allows you to inhibit alarms associated with the connection record. |
|
GROUP |
Group |
The Group table is used to associate individual telemetry points with areas of responsibility. A group record provides a logical grouping of remotes and attached end-devices. |

Trigger Required Trigger State |
For more information, see Understand Anomaly Detect Batch Tracking Compiler (BTC) attributes. |
|
VDEADBAND |
Upstream Early Detection Volume Downstream Late Detection Volume |
For more information, see Understand Anomaly Detect Batch Tracking Compiler (BTC) attributes. |
|
AUTOLAUNCHRECEIVER |
Receiver when automatically launched |
For more information, see Understand Anomaly Detect Batch Tracking Compiler (BTC) attributes. |
|
VNORMDETECT |
Upstream Normal Detection Volume Downstream Normal Detection Window |
For more information, see Understand Anomaly Detect Batch Tracking Compiler (BTC) attributes. |
|
VELDETECT |
Upstream Early Detection Volume Downstream Late Detection Window |
For more information, see Understand Anomaly Detect Batch Tracking Compiler (BTC) attributes. |
|
VNORMDETECTINH |
Inhibit alarms for normal detection |
For more information, see Understand Anomaly Detect Batch Tracking Compiler (BTC) attributes. |
|
VELDETECTINH |
Inhibit alarms for early or late detection |
For more information, see Understand Anomaly Detect Batch Tracking Compiler (BTC) attributes. |
|
V2ELDETECTINH |
Inhibit alarms for too early or late detection |
For more information, see Understand Anomaly Detect Batch Tracking Compiler (BTC) attributes. |
|
MISSETAINH |
Inhibit an alarm when there is a signal but no anomaly |
For more information, see Understand Anomaly Detect Batch Tracking Compiler (BTC) attributes. |
|
MISSSIGNALINH |
Inhibit an alarm when an anomaly leaves undetected |
For more information, see Understand Anomaly Detect Batch Tracking Compiler (BTC) attributes. |
|
RECEIVEINH |
Inhibit alarms when anomaly is received |
For more information, see Understand Anomaly Detect Batch Tracking Compiler (BTC) attributes. |
|
LAUNCHINH |
Inhibit alarms when anomaly is launched |
For more information, see Understand Anomaly Detect Batch Tracking Compiler (BTC) attributes. |

Related Node |
This field is not configurable using the ADE for detect and is presented here for information purposes. The association is specified in the BTC text field as part of the node configuration. |
|
|
Pipeline |
This field is not configurable using the ADE for adetect and is presented here for information purposes. It is automatically set to the pipeline record name. |
The adetect Row Edit configuration record changes depending on whether the Anomaly Detect Type is set to Unspecified or either of Launcher, Detector, or Receiver. If set to Unspecified, the Anomaly Detection and Alarm Management fields will be disabled, and the Anomaly Detection Deadbands fields will be enabled as shown below.

If the Anomaly Detect Type is set to either Launcher, Detector, or Receiver, the Anomaly Detection Deadbands fields will be disabled, and a subset of the Anomaly Detection and Alarm Management fields will be enabled as shown below.
When the Anomaly Detect Type is set to Launcher:
-
Select Receiver when automatically launched. This is an optional field. If specified, automatically launched anomalies using this launcher will use the specified Receiver as their default. If not specified, the Receiver of such anomalies will remain blank until the Controller specifies one.
Note: You can use the selector to specify the Receiver. The selector will list available adetect records of all types. If an adetect record of type other than Receiver is specified, the ADE form will report an error when you save.
-
Select whether the system should inhibit the alarm associated with launching anomalies. An event will always be logged regardless of this configuration.
-
The Normal, Early, and Late Detection windows are not applicable.

When the Anomaly Detect Type is set to Detector:
-
Specify the Normal, Early, and Late Detection windows for upstream and downstream.
-
Select whether the system should inhibit the alarms associated with detecting anomalies. Events will always be logged regardless of this configuration.

When the Anomaly Detect Type is set to Receiver:
-
Specify the Normal, Early, and Late Detection windows for upstream and downstream.
-
Select whether the system should inhibit the alarms associated with detecting and receiving anomalies. Events will always be logged regardless of this configuration.
