Use the Alarm tab of the Alarm Banner dialog box to specify what alarms will be shown and how they will be shown.
Tip: |
If a message defined on the Messages tab of the Alarm Setup editor uses an embedded variable to show the value of an alarm, and if that alarm is in alarm when the application starts up, the alarm banner will show question marks in place of the embedded variable. This is because the alarm system cannot determine when the alarm was triggered, and therefore cannot determine what the value of the variable was at that time. After the value has been reset to 0, the embedded variable value will show accurately the next time the alarm is triggered. |
