Use quality and status indicators to provide runtime feedback

In the same way that element styles can be used to preconfigure consistent visual properties of graphic elements, Quality and Status (QS) indicators can be preconfigured to provide visual elements specific to quality and status states at runtime. Only the highest priority QS indicator is shown at runtime. Therefore, if two or more indicators are active, only the highest-priority indicator is shown. For example, if there are both operational and software errors, only the operational error is shown.

The indicators are listed in order of priority, with the highest priority indicator listed by row from left to right, and then top to bottom. You can configure text, fill, line, outline, blink, and associated display icons for the following QS indicators:

• Communication Error

• Configuration Error

• Pending

• Operational Error

• Software Error

• Security Error

• Warning

• Out of Service

• Device Failure

• Bad

• Uncertain

• Initiating

• Live Value Playback (used for the AVEVA OMI Historical Playback feature)
