TAGDI_dt (Tag Discrete Input Monitoring module detail display)

Configuration view of the Tag Discrete Input Monitoring detail display (TAGDI_dt)

The TAGDI_dt is used with the TAGDI_MONITOR module template. The following sections describe the major components that are present on the TAGDI_dt.

Alarm icon

Shows the highest priority alarm for that module. The following table shows the alarm icon for each alarm priority and state.

	Active acknowledged	Active unacknowledged	Inactive unacknowledged	Suppressed
Critical alarm
Warning alarm
Advisory alarm

Note:

The suppressed alarm icon is visible only when no other active or unacknowledged alarms exist.

Alarms

Alarm label

The alarm label configured for the alarm.

Priority

The alarm priority, such as Warning, Critical or Advisory, that is assigned to the corresponding alarm. Use the drop-down arrow to change the priority for that alarm while online.

Priority Adj

Use the drop-down arrow to decrease the alarm priority while online. If a module has more than one alarm configured, the alarm priorities are all reduced by the same value, except that the lowest priority that will be set is 3, a logged event. (For example, if a module has three alarms, configured with alarm priorities of 12, 8, and 5, and a priority adjustment of 5 is made, the online alarm priorities will be set to 7, 3, and 3, respectively.) The configurable alarm priority held in the PRI field of each alarm parameter remains unchanged. Therefore, setting the priority adjustment back to 0 reestablishes the original priority levels. (In the above example, the priorities are reestablished to 12, 8, and 5). Refer to the topic "The ALARMS parameter" for more information on the ALARMS parameter and to the and the "System alarm management" section for more information on alarm priorities.

Enab check box (Enable)

Indicates the corresponding alarm's ENAB (enabled) state. This checkbox is a read-only indication.

OOS check box (Out of Service)

Indicates whether the alarm is currently out of service.

Select this check box to remove the corresponding alarm from service; deselect this check box to restore it to service.

Shlv check box(Shelve)

Shows any active conditions in the module's MERROR, MSTATUS, and BLOCK_ERR parameters. Each parameter has its own tab, and the parameter name is underlined on the tab when an active condition exists for that parameter. Click the parameter's tab to see its active conditions. When an error has occurred in the module, a Clear Error button appears on the MERROR tab. Click this button to clear all active errors.
