Yes, built-in Alarms are supported
by UniLogic 1.14.44 and UniStream OS 1.14.7 and up.
UniStream’ s Alarm system, designed in accordance with ISA ANSI/ISA-18.2-2009
guidelines, provides an efficient method of boosting your application safety
level.
Easily accessible from the Solution Explorer, UniLogic provides a broad range
of Alarm features, allowing you to configure Alarms to accommodate different
application and alarm types.
The Alarm Banner, displayed on your HMI screens, alerts operators, enabling them to open the Alarm Summary list of events, view status, acknowledge and clear Alarms, and read countermeasure instructions. The Alarm banner may be displayed full-size as shown, with a scrolling window showing active alarms, or may be minimized to a button.
The HMI Toolbox now includes a new widget: the Alarm Status Viewer. This allows convenient Alarms management.
The manager can view Alarm status, enter Comments, Shelve, and Disable Alarms.
Alarm events are logged to the controller’s SD card. You can extract and view these logs via the UniStream Data Converters Suite utility Alarms Log to Excel.
All components of the Alarms system:
Alarm names, alerts, and countermeasure instructions, enjoy multi-language support in all languages including Asian languages.
The components of the Alarm system are a powerful aid to machine builders and automation engineers with applications requiring higher levels of adherence to security standards.
