Enabling Alarms Dynamically - Machine On

Allowing a dynamic condition to determine if an alarm is enabled or disabled is possible inside the alarm's properties.

To configure the alarm's enabled property

  1. Select a tag that has the alarm you want to configure.

  2. Access the alarm properties by double-clicking on the tag and selecting the alarming properties tag.

  3. Bind the enabled property to a boolean tag or an expression that evaluates a true or false condition.

  4. Click OK.
     Now the alarm will only evaluate based upon the condition of the tag or expression.
