Alarm And Event List Operation - ABB 800xA Operation

Section 5 Condition Event Handling

Alarm and Event List Operation

There are two categories of alarms that are used exclusively by Asset Optimization:
Asset Condition Alarm: Generated by an Asset Monitor when an abnormal asset
condition is detected. An example of an Asset Condition Alarm is when the hours of
operation of an asset (equipment) has been exceeded. A suggested action might be
some periodic preventative maintenance action.
Asset Monitoring Status Alarm: Generated when something is abnormal in the
Asset Optimization execution environment. An example of an Asset Monitoring
Status Alarm is when the Asset Monitoring Engine is unable to read OPC values.
Another example is when a particular Asset Monitor is not properly configured and
is unable to execute.
Individual Alarm and Event lists can be configured to filter on these categories.
Refer to System 800xA Asset Optimization Configuration (3BUA000118*) for more
detailed information.
Some preconfigured Alarm and Event lists that filter on these categories are
automatically loaded with the Asset Optimization system extension. These Alarm
and Event Lists are aspects of the Asset Optimization object in the Control
Structure.
