AlarmCntsBySeverity1Visible custom property

  • Last UpdatedAug 06, 2024
  • 2 minute read

The Boolean value of the AlarmCntsBySeverity1Visible custom property shows or hides the alarm indicator for active severity 1 alarms. When True, the SA_AlarmSeverity symbol shows an active severity 1 alarm count of 1 or greater and a red diamond. Neither the severity 1 alarm count field nor red diamond appear on the SA_AlarmSeverity symbol when AlarmCntsBySeverity1Visible evaluates to False.

Typically, The custom property reference value evaluates to True when when the shelved severity 1 alarm count is 1 or greater. The reference value evaluates to False when the shelved severity 1 alarm count is equal to 0.

The AlarmCntsBySeverity1Visible custom property can be assigned a static True value. Both the active alarm severity 1 count and red diamond appear on the SA_AlarmSeverity symbol when there are 1 or more active severity 1 alarms. When the count of active severity 1 alarms is 0, the diamond indicator is gray and the count field shows 0.

Me.AlarmCntsbySeverity [1] > 0

Assign AlarmCntsBySeverity[1]>0 attribute as a reference value or assign a static value.

The AlarmSeverity1Indicator Wizard option must be set to True to show the AlarmCntsBySeverity1Visible custom property. To show all four active alarm severity counts on a SA_AlarmSeverity symbol, the AlarmCntsBySeverityxVisible custom properties for severity 1, 2, 3, and 4 active alarms must be configured.

When the SA_AlarmSeverity symbol is configured as an alarm severity indicator, it can show active alarm or shelved alarm counts, but not both simultaneously. The value of the ShelveEnable Wizard option determines whether an alarm severity indicator shows active or shelved alarm counts.

When the SA_AlarmSeverity symbol is configured as an alarm panel, both active and shelved alarm counts can be shown on the symbol. To show shelved alarm counts by severity on an alarm panel,configure the AlarmCntsBySeverityx EnableShlvd and AlarmCntsBySeverityxShlvdVisible custom properties.
