Command Panel Control symbol component

The SA_AlarmSeverity includes a Wizard option to incorporate a command panel control when the symbol is configured as an alarm panel. During run time, operators can select an alarm mode from the command panel's drop-down list to change the mode of the alarms reported from an area.

The command panel includes mode options to enable, disable, silence, or disable alarms. After selecting a mode option from the list, operators click Apply to change the alarm mode of the area and close the command panel. Operators have 30 seconds to make an alarm mode selection and apply it before the command panel automatically closes. Inhibiting an alarm requires the operator to confirm the inhibit request twice.

To configure a command panel

To enable a command panel, the CommandPanel Wizard option must be set to True and reference values assigned to two custom properties.
