To check the current status of alarm suppression groups
1. Call up the Suppression Status display using one of the following methods:
l
Right-click an alarm on the Alarm Summary and choosing Suppression Status
from the shortcut menu.
l
Right-click any element that represents a point (for example, the PV or the alarm
state icon for that point) on a faceplate, custom display, or point detail display
and choose Suppression Status from the shortcut menu.
l
Click the Suppression Status link at the right of the Alarm Details pane.
l
On the main Station menu bar, choose ConfigureAlarm & Event
ManagementAlarms to call up the Alarm Configuration displays, and then click
the Alarm Suppression tab.
The Suppression Status display appears, listing all suppression groups loaded to this
cluster.
Tip:
If the State of a suppression group is shown as Disabled (disabled from
Station), Suppressing (enabled from Station) or Not suppressing
(enabled from Station), this means there is currently an “override” on the
enabled/disabled setting that was configured for this group at a system level:
Overrides apply only to the server cluster that you are currently connected
to; they are not applied system wide. For more information, see the topic
“Enabling and disabling alarm suppression groups”.
