Alarms
The Alarm Status function provides a convenient method for creating alerts for various
conditions that may warrant immediate attention from operators. A single LED located at the
top of the screen next to the Alarm Status button alerts the user to changes in the status of any
configured alarms on a “most severe” basis, and provides navigation to the more detailed Alarm
Status screen.
Each HMI instance (either remote or local) can have customized alarms, see
However, if the user updates the HMI with files from the CPU it will overwrite the alarm
configuration, see chapter 9 in the System Administrator Manual, DEH-430 for more details.
