At run time, an operator can use an alarm and event summary to monitor alarm activity,
and to acknowledge, suppress, disable, or reset active alarms. For more information about
these actions, see subsequent sections in this chapter.
The parts of an alarm and event summary
The following illustration shows an alarm and event summary at run time.
An alarm and event summary is composed of:
 An alarm list, that shows alarms that need the operator’s attention.
 An optional status bar, that provides information about the contents of the alarm and
event summary, such as the name of the filter applied to the list view.
You can also use alarm tags to suppress, unsuppress, enable, and disable alarms. For more
information, see “Using tags to interact with alarms or obtain their status” on page 12-51.
