Displaying Alarms Using the Event Display Object
The Event Display Object takes the event strings sent to it from the Event (Alarm) Log Object and displays them on a
window screen as a list. The list contains all of the events that have occurred with the most recently triggered event
at the top of the list. You do not have to display the entire list of events on a window screen. You can limit the
viewable events to a ‘scrollable window’ that displays a given number of lines. An acknowledge feature allows the
HMI operator to touch an event recorded in the event list to display a popup window. The popup window can then be
used to display further instructions to the HMI operator or to perform some operation.

2. Use the Description: box to enter a title for the Event Display object. A description is not necessary but does
