Create alarm

There are two ways of creating alarms in the system.

Way №1:

  1. State change conditions are set up.

  2. Object is in the state with a defined severity.

You can define severity for a state on the States screen.

Way №2:

  1. Alarm generation conditions are set up.

    If alarm generation conditions are set up, alarms can’t be generated with state change conditions.

Perform the following actions to setup alarm generation conditions:

  1. Open an object in an end view by selecting in the navigation panel and pressing the button in the views panel, or press the same button on the object’s representation in the standard view.

  2. Press the Alarm generation conditions button.

  3. Configure conditions:

    Mathematical operators can be used for numeric values; text operators for both numeric and textual (case-insensitive).

    Operators = and ≠ can also be used with text values (case-insensitive).

    When you use text comparison operator, for example matches, you can use regular expressions as value.
