3. Select a SNVT_alarm or SNVT_alarm_2 data point from the SmartServer tree (based on

whichever icon has its text highlighted blue) to be updated to an alarm condition when an alarm
occurs. If you want to use a data point of an external device that is being managed with OpenLNS
CT, OpenLNS tree, or another OpenLNS application, you must first copy the data point from the
OpenLNS tree to the SmartServer tree (see Adding Data Points to SmartServer Applications in
Chapter 4, Using the Web Interface, for more information on adding data points to a SmartServer
application).

NOTE: If you add an Alarm Generator functional block with OpenLNS CT, a SNVT_alarm
output data point is automatically created for use with the Alarm Generator. See the OpenLNS
Commissioning Tool User’s Guide
for more information on adding functional blocks.

4. You can set the priority level of the alarm in the Priority box. Select a value from 0 to 11, with 0

being the highest priority and 11 being the lowest. This value will be sent in the priority field of
the SNVT_alarm and/or SNVT_alarm_2 output data point when an alarm is generated.

5. Click Submit.

6. References to the selected SNVT_alarm and SNVT_alarm_2 output data points are added to the

bottom of the Alarm Generator functional block tree.
