Enter an Alarm Tag to identify the alarm when it is displayed
in the Chart, Process and Alarm Event views.
Note. Process and Latch alarms only – see Figs. 4.11 and 4.12.
Set the value, in engineering units, at which the alarm is to
activate.
Set the hysteresis value in engineering units and the time
hysteresis in seconds.
Process Variable
High Trip
Low Trip
When an alarm trip value is exceeded, the alarm does not
become active until the time hysteresis value has expired. If
the signal goes out of the alarm condition before the time
hysteresis has expired, the hysteresis value is reset.
