Concept
System alarms monitor system entities, such as online status for field servers or field devices. The system alarms are generated by the EcoStruxure Building Operation software. Users cannot create new system alarms. The possible causes of a system alarm are gathered in an enumeration called System alarm ID. When a system alarm is triggered, the cause of the alarm is indicated in the System alarm ID column in the Alarms pane or Alarm View. Some system alarms have additional information in the Alarm text column.
Concept
When you force a value, you override all input from the system. For example, if a schedule is set to enable a device at 09:00, but you want to enable it at 08:00, you can force the enablement at 08:00.
User Interface
Use the Calculated Exception view in the Schedule Event Properties dialog box to schedule recurring exceptions.
User Interface
Use the Add/Remove Columns dialog box to add or remove columns to the Search View.
Concept
Every time an alarm changes its state, such as from alarm state to reset state, an event is written in the event log and shown in the Events pane in WorkStation. You can disable state-change logging if you are only interested in the current alarm status. For example, you want to present the current alarm status in a graphic and do not care about the event history.
