CIMPLICITY Event Alarms
A set of CIMPLICITY event alarms is included in your base configuration. These alarms are not associated with any single CIMPLICITY point ID during configuration. CIMPLICITY event alarms may be modified, but they should never be deleted. They are:
| CIMPLICITY Event Alarms | Function During Runtime |
|---|---|
| $ACAL_ADD_OV | Event added alarm generated by the Action Calendar. |
| $ACAL_CFG_ERROR | Configuration error alarm generated by the Action Calendar. |
| $ACAL_DAYTYPE_OV | Day type override alarm generated by the Action Calendar. |
| $ACAL_EVENT | Setpoint event occurred successfully generated by the Action Calendar. |
| $ACAL_TIME_OV | Event time override alarm generated by the Action Calendar. |
| $ALARM_DISABLED | Alarm is disabled for the specified point. |
| $ALARM_ENABLED | Alarm is enabled for the specified point |
| $ALARM_MODIFIED | Alarm limits are modified for the specified point. |
| $ALARM_RAWLIM | Range limits exceeded for the specified point. |
| $ALARM_RESTORED | Alarm limits restored for the specified point. |
| $AM_STATUS | Alarm Management status message used to analyze system performance. This message is issued every half-hour and shows the number of alarms generated, the count of alarms acknowledged, reset and deleted, and the average number of seconds required to log an alarm. Note: Alarms generated is also incremented when an alarm is reset. In the case of reset, the message must be re-sent to clients to change state. Alarms Deleted is only incremented when a manual delete is performed. |
| $DEVICE | Indicates if the device is up (able to communicate) or down. When the device is up Normal displays. When the device is down is in Alarm State. Configure a separate resource for each device. This helps separate the alarms, which would get stacked with the same resource. |
| $DEVICE_DOWN | Device failure message for specified device. |
| $DEVICE_FAILOVER | Reserved for future use. |
| $DL_FILE_FULL | Log file full message for specified log file. |
| $DOWNLOAD | Setpoint was downloaded to specified device. |
| $DYN_CFG | The specified entity has been changed dynamically. |
| $EM_OUTOF_MEMORY | An out of string space error has occurred. |
| $HIST_COLLECTOR | Indicates that the Historian Collector has stopped collecting data. |
| $HIST_SERVER | Indicates that CIMPLICITY cannot connect to the Historian server. |
| $LOGIN_FAILURE | Specified user failed to log in to the specified CIMPLICITY project. |
| $LOGON | Specified user has logged in to a specified CIMPLICITY project. |
| $LOGOUT | Specified user has logged out from a specified CIMPLICITY project. |
| $OPC_MODEL_EVENT | Generates alarms from OPC events. Note: Alarms that are logged to the event log are treated as OPC A&E events by the OPC server. OPC events received by the OPC client are logged to the event log by default. |
| $REDUND_DEV_DOWN | Alarm message for PLC redundancy. |
| $RTR_LINK_DOWN | Router link has been lost to specified node. |
| AMSI_ALARM | AMSI_ALARM is generated when a XASMGR (External Alarm State Manager) stops unexpectedly; the alarm is cleared when XASMGR restarts. |
| DB_CONN_DOWN | Process has lost connection to specified logging database. |
| DB_START_FORWARD | Process is forwarding data to specified logging database. |
| MCP_PROC_DOWN | Specified CIMPLICITY process has terminated unexpectedly. |
