Alarms are displayed on the IMC or IMC/TPIU LEDs; they also appear on the relay contact closures on the Input module.

Provisioning the Alarm Levels

Use the SET-ATTR command to set the alarms associated with the IMC and IOC. You can use this command to reset all alarm levels to the factory default values, and to allow the TimeProvider to escalate alarms. Table 4-3lists the alarms, a brief description of each alarm, and it’s default parameters.

SET-ATTR:[<tid>]:<aid>:[<ctag>]::<keyword>[=<value>];
