Alarms overview

Modify an alarm

Alarms have been set up in the PID_LOOP template, which we used as the basis for the FIC-101 module. Only three of the alarms, HI_ALM, LO_ALM, and PVBAD_ALM, are enabled. For the example, you will modify HI_ALM slightly to change the value from 95 to 90. This means that an alarm will be activated if the flow goes above 90 gallons per minute.

  1. In the Alarm view, double-click HI_ALM (or right-click it and select Properties).

  2. Change the Limit value from 95 to 90, and then click OK.
