Improving Security; Configuring Guardian - Carel boss User Manual

ENG
5.1 Configuring guardian
Site supervision security is guaranteed by guardian, which works in tandem with boss and ensures correct
operation.
Specifically, it uses privileged notification channels to warn whether all set peripherals are on and if the PC is
under conditions of stress by default. When appropriately set it can also warn whether certain alarms were
recognised within a certain time period or if certain variables changed in a certain period of time.
Warning: the message area shows a notification
requiring the engine to be restarted and the direct
command to do so. This means boss needs to be
restarted to make the changes effective
