6.13.4 Create an Alarm Log
The alarm objects on the device contain an alarm summary (live list) of currently active and
acknowledge-pending alarms. As soon as an alarm becomes inactive and has been
acknowledged, it disappears from the alarm summary. To store a historical log of alarm
transitions an alarm log needs to be created.
An alarm log can log transitions of one or more alarm objects. Its size is configurable. The
alarm log is a ring buffer. As soon as its size limit is reached, the oldest alarm log records
are overwritten by new alarm transitions.
To Create an Alarm Log
1. Under the Global Objects folder, select the Alarm Log Object Configuration sub-
folder.
2. In the data point list right-click and select New Alarm Log … from the context menu.
3. In the Create New Alarm Log dialog enter a Name for the alarm log. Optionally enter
a Description.
4. Enter a Log Size, which defines how many transitions are resident in the alarm log.
5. Define a percentage for Fill Level Notification, which can be used to trigger the
ransmission of E-Mails.
