A matching text string alarm evaluates if the monitored value equals the given text strings.
The text string is case sensitive and must be written exactly as the monitored variable text output.
Wildcards cannot be used in the text string.
For example, a script program inside a b3 Continuum system generates text strings that you want to monitor. You configure the matching text string alarm to trigger an alarm when a certain string is sent from the device.
Matching text string alarms can be configured using shunt variable and time delay. For more information, see Alarm Functions .
