The Alarm Client Control

The Alarm Client Control is a graphical element you can use in your Industrial Graphics to show current and historical alarms and events.

The Alarm Client Control replaces the Alarm Viewer control and Alarm DB View control in the InTouch® HMI and extends alarm visualization to the Industrial graphics environment.

You can place the Alarm Client Control directly from the Tools panel in the Industrial Graphic Editor onto the canvas. You can customize it to your needs by adding further graphics, interactions, and scripts.

You can deploy a managed InTouch application containing Alarm Client Controls to a remote node and visualize and interact with alarms at run time with InTouch WindowViewer.

For this documentation, the Alarm Client Control is simply referred to as "Alarm Control."
