Alarm type
For each datapoint in the datapoint description, the user can determine whether the
signals generated are to be treated as critical or non-critical alarm.
signals generated are to be treated as critical or non-critical alarm.
Alarm delay
An alarm signal can be delayed by entering an alarm delay time. An alarm signal
will be generated only if an alarm continues uninterrupted during the alarm delay
time.
will be generated only if an alarm continues uninterrupted during the alarm delay
time.
Suppress alarm
If an alarm signal is not desired from a particular datapoint, this can be fixed in the
datapoint description. Thus, all the alarm signals relevant to the particular datapoint
and the "Operating Mode" alarm types are suppressed.

Fig. 7. Alarm condition depending on point value and Suppress Alarm status
Fig. 7 shows an example of a changing point value that rises above and falls below
the limit Max 2. If Suppress Alarm is not active, then the alarm condition switches
between normal to alarm, according to the limit Max 2. If Suppress Alarm is active,
then the alarm condition remains normal unless Suppress Alarm is switched off
before the point value falls below the limit Max 2. Regardless of the setting of the
Alarm suppression flag, an alarm is entered into the controller's history buffer and is
also available in the EBI alarm report.

Point alarm
It is possible to view all datapoints at the operator interfaces for which the limit
value (analog point) or the alarm status (digital point) is currently exceeded.
Driven by a menu, the user address and the accompanying alarm text are displayed
on the XI581 (not with XCL5010, Excel 100C) or XI582 operator interfaces or Excel
50 MMI.
On the XL-Online operator interface, a datapoint within the framework of the
datapoint description can be seen in all four password levels. If a current alarm is
present for the point in question, the attribute “Point in Alarm” produces the display
“Yes”, otherwise “No”.
Within the framework of the datapoint description, it is possible, under the attribute
“Alarm text”, to enter an alarm text of up to 18 characters in addition to the prepro-
grammed text. There are 256 alarm texts in total.
Table 6 presents a summary of various alarm types and attributes.
