Alarm Handling without good range

[yavaskoray]

Hello Gents,

I would like to ask you a question about alarm handing.
My aim is: Show alarms, status and commands in one screen (alarm screen) with related alarm classes.
My problem : I must configure an alert handling in a dpe(a status) without a good range. For example a boolean value: True -> "Closed" , False-> "Open".
or another example would be an analog output. I must have an alarm message whenever i change the float output to a different value.
How is it possible to create an alert handling without good range? or Do i have to create a new alert screen for my needs?

Regards,
Koray

Hello,

there is no possibility to define an alert-handling without a good range. At least one range is the good range without a referenced alert class.
Maybe you can reach the goal with multi instance alerts. A multi instance alert is not raised depending on the values of the dp-element. If you want to get an alert you have to set some attributes for the _alert_hdl-config.
In the script where the commands are set the original value and the _alert_hdl-attributes are set.

For detailed information please hve a look at the online help: Module PARA --> Data point configs --> _alert_hdl.
