AlarmManager |
An important part of any alarm rationalization
process is to provide documentation for each alarm.
The Control Arts AlarmManager provides both a clean interface
for managing the overall DCS alarm configuration and a user-friendly
input screen for adding or modifying alarm procedures. |
 |
|
 |
Providing a front-end to the alarm documentation,
the AlarmManager module stores all user configuration data in
an SQL Server or Access database, allowing easy access from
anywhere in the plant. |
|
| The EEMUA standard has recommendations on alarm
configurations - such things as priority distributions and alarms
per controller and operator. It's easy to check that your system
meets these recommendations, and easy to determine what changes
have been made to the alarm system since the last benchmark. |
