Capturing Alarms and Events

175

To create an Event Display Object:

1. From the Objects menu, click Alarm > Event Display or click the Event Display icon in the Object 2 toolbar.

The New Event Display Object dialog box appears.

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

help identify the purpose of the part.

3. Select either Real-time or History as the mode for the events to be displayed.

In Real-time mode, the Write address is the register where the alarm or event writes the window number

used to popup an acknowledgement Indirect Window.

In History mode, the History control address is the register used to select the history file to display, where 0

is the most recent events, 1 is yesterday’s events, 2 is the events from two days ago, etc. Select Enable

reading multiple histories to display more than one history file at a time (see Event Display on page 62 for

more information).

4. Select Enable event management to configure a register to control the events that are displayed (see Event

Display on page 62 for more information).
