Emerson Process Management 2400S manual 8 Status alarms and severity levels

Optional Configuration

Some alarms can be reclassified. For example:

•The default severity level for Alarm A020 (calibration factors unentered) is Fault, but you can reconfigure it to either Informational or Ignore.

•The default severity level for Alarm A102 (drive over-range) is Informational, but you can reconfigure it to either Ignore or Fault.

For a list of all status alarms and default severity levels, see Table 8-8.(For more information on status alarms, including possible causes and troubleshooting suggestions, see Table 11-2.)

To configure alarm severity:

•Using ProLink II, see Figure B-3.

•Using a DeviceNet tool, refer to Table C-7and:

a.Set the alarm index (Attribute 18).

b.Set the severity for that alarm (Attribute 19).

Note: This functionality is not available via the display menus.
