Alarm Printer View

1.4.1Features

1.4.1.1Alarm Display

The alarms are displayed in this area according to the configuration set up on the Property pages.

1.4.1.2Start Printing

Right clicking on the Alarm Display brings up this context menu. If this option is available, alarms will begin to be printed when it is selected, and the 'Stop Printing' option becomes available. If the Alarm Printer View window has just opened and this option is available, then printing of alarms has not yet started, probably because the 'Auto Print' alarms option was not selected on the General property page.

1.4.1.3Stop Printing

Right clicking on the Alarm Display brings up this context menu. If this option is available and is selected, then printing of alarms will stop. When the 'Auto Print' option is selected from the General Property page, both the Start Printing and Stop Printing options are disabled.

1.4.1.4Properties

Right clicking on the Alarm Display brings up this context menu. Selection of this option will open the Property pages for configuration of the Alarm Printer View.

1.4.1.5Sorting Alarms

The default sort ordering of alarms can be changed by clicking on the relevant column heading. A second click on the same column heading will reverse the sort order.

Note: alarms are automatically sorted into descending time-stamp (attribute name: occurencetime) order by default. It should be noted that when alarms are printed this is always in the order in which they are received irrespective of the sort order on the screen.
