-
Priority – This field displays the priority (such as Warning, Critical or Advisory) that is assigned to the corresponding alarm.
-
Change Alarm Priority – This button is used to change the alarm priority of the corresponding alarm.
-
Priority Adj – This button is used to decrease the alarm priority at run time. 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 run-time 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, 12, 8, and 5). Refer to Events and Alarms reference for more information on the ALARMS parameter and to System alarm management for more information on alarm priorities.
