    Instruction Manual Operating with a DeltaV System D103412X012 July 2013 Bringing the Device On‐Line To completely configure the digital valve controller for use in a fieldbus loop, the following conditions must be met. Refer to DeltaV On‐Line‐Help or documentation for detailed information on accomplishing these steps. 1.
  • Page 318 Instruction Manual Operating with a DeltaV System July 2013 D103412X012 Initial Device Setup When new FF devices are commissioned on the DeltaV system, device alarms are automatically enabled and default priorities are assigned to the alarms. Select properties on the device, then the Alarms and Displays tab, as shown in figure F‐5 to view whether device alarms are enabled on a particular device.
  • Page 319 Instruction Manual Operating with a DeltaV System D103412X012 July 2013 Area Assignment Controllers use this area assignment to report node status (e.g. not communicating). Devices and control modules use this area assignment to determine where to send their alarms. Area A is the default area assignment for all controllers and workstations (see figures F‐6 and F‐7). Also, by default Area A is assigned to all workstations Alarms and Events subsystem.
  • Page 320 Instruction Manual Operating with a DeltaV System July 2013 D103412X012 because all workstations have Area A assigned. Consider lowering the priority of these alarms to ADVISORY until the end of the commissioning process. Reporting Alarms and Events to a Workstation Device alarm and event reporting is no different than control module reporting.

DeltaV Alarm Summary Configuration Each display alarm summary can be configured to match the alarm banner or be uniquely defined. Note If you think you should be seeing a device alarm in the alarm banner and it is not there, verify that the device is shown on the AlarmSum display.
  • Page 322 Instruction Manual Operating with a DeltaV System July 2013 D103412X012 Deciding Device Alarm Priorities Each device alarm, just like every process alarm, has a priority assigned to it. When a device is created, the device alarms are assigned default alarm priorities as shown in figure F‐9. Figure F‐9.
