Post by mku »

Hi,

To display alarms I'm using standard buton, wchich has clcicked function "pt_click_PT_navi_as()". With this function alarm panel apear on left screen (1-st monitor), and I've got 4 monitors workstation.
My question is: what parameter should I add to show alarm screen on current screen?.

The function pt_click_PT_navi_as() does not have a parameter where you can define the position where the AEScreen shall be displayed.
Instead of pt_click_PT_navi_as() you can use the standard function openAES() to open the AEScreen.
The function checks if the module given at one of the parameters is already opened. If not the module opened, otherwise the already opened module is used.

You could
-- open a new module with a defined name at the position where the AEScreen shall be displayed using the function ModuleOn()
-- use openAES() to display the AEScreen in the new module

I am using the ETM tree template and I want to show the alarm client in the main module not as a pop up window .

such that when clicking on the alarm button , I want it to be replaced and shown exactly in the module where the tree shows , please see the attached picture below .

Thanks

At the function openAES() you can define the module name where the panel shall be opened.
When using the panel topology templates the main module has the name "mainModule_X", X is the screen number. If you only have one screen the name is "mainModule_1".

By the way I have a question regarding the scheduler if possible to ask .

I have followed all the instruction in the help to be able to test if an "Air handling unit" is following the actions that i have used in the scheduler such as changing the temperature set point or other datapoints values while the time is outside the operation hours .But it doesn't seem to work ,even the popup is not being shown . Is there any special configuration to be made other than which is done from System management>>scheduler .

Regards

When using recipes in the scheduler you have to ensure that the CTRL-library "rcp.ctc" for the recipes is loaded in the CTRL manager executing the script scheduler.ctc.
To load the library you have to set a config entry:
[ctrl_X]
LoadCtrlLibs = "rcp.ctc"

X needs to be substituted with the manager number for the CTRL manager.
