Figure F‐8. 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. This display shows ALL of the alarms reporting to that workstation, regardless of the device alarm annunciation
settings. If the device is not shown in this display, then it is not reporting to this workstation (or the logged on user does not have
responsibility for that area).
The default for device alarm annunciation (sounds the horn and shown in the alarm banner) can be modified for all
operator/maintenance stations. Or unique settings can be defined for specific workstations. Use the workstation name
to adjust settings for specific workstations in UserSettings.grf.
For example, if an installation has a Maintenance Station named 'MAINT', then the UserRef.grf (then renamed to
UserSettings.grf) would contain alarm settings for the MAINT workstation as appropriate for maintenance (e.g. all
device alarms in the alarm banner).
Note
To easily find the device alarm configuration in UserRef or UserSettings, open the display in the Standard directory, right click and
select EDIT SCRIPT, then select Edit, Find and type in DEVICE. This will take you to the location in the file with the device alarm
settings.
