Modify an alarm priority

  1. Navigate to Alarm Priorities (System Configuration/Setup/Alarm Preferences).
  2. Click Alarm Priorities.
  3. Right-click the priority you want to modify.
  4. Click Properties.
  5. Modify the settings.
    Note:

    If you are using DeltaV Live, and you modify an alarm priority label (name), then you must manually modify the label's corresponding Graphics Studio standard. For example, if the priority label, CRITICAL, is changed to SEVERE, then the value for the Graphics Studio standard, S_AlarmPriority15, must be manually changed from CRITICAL to SEVERE.

    Similarly, if you add a new label to an alarm priority level in DeltaV Explorer, then you must manually modify the label's corresponding Graphics Studio standard. For example, if you add the new label, NOT-SO-BAD, to priority level 6, then you must manually enter NOT-SO-BAD as the value for the Graphics Studio standard, S_AlarmPriority06.
