Alerts

The Resource Block will act as a coordinator for alerts. There will be three alarm
parameters (FAILED_ALARM, MAINT_ALARM, and ADVISE_ALARM) which will contain
information regarding some of the device errors which are detected by the transmitter
software. There will be a RECOMMENDED_ACTION parameter which will be used to display
the recommended action text for the highest priority alarm, and a HEALTH_INDEX
parameter (0 - 100) indicating the overall health of the transmitter. FAILED_ALARM will
have the highest priority followed by MAINT_ALARM, and ADVISE_ALARM will be the
lowest priority.
I.3.1 FAILED_ALARMS
A failure alarm indicates a failure within a device that will make the device or some part of
the device non-operational. This implies that the device is in need of repair and must be
fixed immediately. There are five parameters associated with FAILED_ALARMS specifically,
they are described below.
FAILED_ENABLED
This parameter contains a list of failures in the device which makes the device non-
operational that will cause an alert to be sent. Below is a list of the failures:
1. Level / Interface Measurement Failure
2. Volume / Temperature Measurement Failure
3. Electronics Failure / Transducer Block
4. Probe Missing
5. Input / Output Failure
6. Non-Volatile Memory Failure

Index number Description
02 The user description of the intended application of the block.
08 Read/write test parameter - used only for conformance testing.
35 This alert is generated by any change to the static data.
40 This alert is generated if the write lock parameter is cleared.
34 When hardware write protection is selected, WRITE_LOCK becomes an
indicator of the jumper setting and is unavailable for software write
protection.
When software write lock is selected, and WRITE_LOCK is set, no
writings from anywhere else are allowed, except to clear WRITE_LOCK.
Block input will continue to be updated.
39 Priority of the alarm generated by clearing the write lock.
44 Indicates which transducer block licensing options are enabled.
