Double click on the Quantum icon to start EagleVision-NT. The Point
Configuration screen is displayed. See Figure V–1.
The first step in system configuration is selection of device triggers, as
described below.
NOTE
The default trigger lists will ensure correct operation in the major-
ity of applications, and no modifications to the lists are required.
If it is determined that changes to the default trigger lists are
required or additional trigger lists need to be added, follow the
procedure described below.
Each Eagle field device has discrete pieces of status information. Device
triggers are the means through which the operator tells the system how
to treat each of these pieces of information — which ones constitute an
alarm, which constitute a fault, and which are handled simply as system
events.
Device triggers are used by one of EagleVision-NT’s diagnostic features
called the “Overview” screen. The Overview screen shows a schematic
representation of the loop and its field devices. It then graphically dis-
plays the status of each point — whether it is normal, in alarm, or fault.
The conditions that will trigger an alarm or fault are determined during
system configuration. A default trigger “list” has been provided for each
