Active Alarms Page

The Active Alarm screen is used as a 'heads-up display' for identifying all inputs that are currently in
the alarm state along with a timestamp. When equipped with the CR option, the Master DMS-3K will
display alarms from itself as well as every slave DMS-3K connected to it, in chronological order.
Figure 4–1. Active Alarms (#)
As shown in figure 4-1, the Active Alarm page displays all active alarms in chronological order as they
occur. The active alarms can be latched by selecting the 'latched alarms' box or unlatched. The
alarms can be color coded to show the various alarm states: Alarm, Acknowledged and Normal.
In Figure 4-1, Alarms are shown in Red, latched alarms that returned to normal before they were
acknowledged are shown in Black and active alarms that have been acknowledged are shown in
green. Different colors can be selected in the color selection configuration screen.
The selection box for Latched Alarms allows you to latch alarms on this web page until they have
been acknowledged. Unlatched alarms will disappear from this web page as soon as they return to
normal. In all cases, the alarms are stored in memory after they clear for future analysis and viewing
on the Event Log.
