Alarm viewer

Abstract

Check out this article to learn more details about the i4designer Alarm viewer component and its properties.

The i4designer Alarm viewer component is an event notification and management extension that allows the user to view and act upon i4SCADA alarms, providing complex capabilities like alarm acknowledgment, processing, commenting, filtering, and offline alarm viewing.

The Alarm viewer table provides a detailed alarm status representation, using color codes and textual hints. The active alarms can be filtered for both display and processing using the complex filtering criteria available in the contextual menu.

The Alarm viewer component

Category	Property	Description
Common	Name	The name of the component, visible in other Designer locations (such as Page explorer).
	Object ID	Sets the Object ID of the component. By defining an object ID for the control, it can be passed as SignalPrefix when using parameter passing in navigation. The value of the Object ID can be used via a placeholder [OID] in other properties of this extension. The placeholder is supported in all signal properties, symbolic text, and states. Example: Setpoint [OID]
	Tooltip text	Optional tooltip text, that will be shown on mouseover at runtime.
Security	System authorization	The system authorization required to display the component. If the logged in user does not have this system authorization, the component will not be visible or enabled (depending on the set Security access behavior). If the property is left empty, the component will be visible and enabled for all users. Further on, the user can also add multiple System authorizations / Permissions, separated by comma (,).
	Project authorization	The project authorization required for displaying the component. If the logged in user does not have this project authorization, the component will not be visible or enabled (depending on the set Security access behavior). If the property is left empty, the component will be visible and enabled to all users. Further on, the user can also add multiple Project authorizations / Roles, separated by comma (,).
	Security access behavior	Sets the behavior of the element to either disabled (grayed out) or hidden, when the logged in user doesn't meet the conditions imposed by the Project authorization / Roles and System authorization / Permissions properties. In case both Project authorization / Roles and System authorization / Permissions properties are set, the logged user needs to meet both conditions to be able to see and utilize the component, at run-time.
Layout	Layout mode	Sets the behavior of the component related to the page placement. The user can select the component layout from the options available in the drop-down list: Default, Dock top, Dock bottom, Dock left, Dock right, Stretched, Pin top left, Pin top center, Pin top right, Pin right middle, Pin bottom right, Pin bottom center, Pin bottom left, Pin left middle and Pin center.
Layout	Margin	Sets the margin of the component relative to the drawing board area. The supported values are the standard CSS values for the margin. The top, bottom, left and right values can either be typed in the main property field or by using the Margin editor. The Margin editor can be opened by clicking the Open button. The components margins can be updated by setting the margin value and selecting the desired unit: Ems (em) - The em is a scalable unit. One em is equal to the current font-size; Pixels (px) - Pixels are are fixed-size units. One pixel is equal to one dot on the computer screen (the smallest division of a screen’s resolution). Percent (%) - The percent unit is much like the “em” unit. When using the Percent unit the component remains fully scalable for mobile devices and accessibility.
Effects	Opacity	Sets the opacity of the component. The Opacity values should be numbers from 0 to 1 representing the opacity of the component. When the component has a value of 0 the element is completely invisible; a value of 1 is completely opaque (solid). By default, the Component's opacity is set to value 1. Using the up / down arrows the user can control the opacity degree. By clicking the Open button the view is extended to display the Opacity slider.
	Shadow color	Sets the color of the component shadow, either by manually typing in the HEX color code or by using the color picker tool. As the component colors are injected by the default CSS, changing the color will overwrite the CSS.
	Shadow offset X	Sets the offset of the shadow on the horizontal axis. The default value can be increased or decreased, either by manually typing in the desired value or by using the up and down arrows.
	Shadow offset Y	Sets the offset of the shadow on the vertical axis. The default value can be increased or decreased, either by manually typing in the desired value or by using the up and down arrows.
	Shadow size	Sets the width of the component shadow. The default value can be increased or decreased, either by manually typing in the desired value or by using the up and down arrows.
Configuration	Configuration namespace	The namespace used by the chart predefined configuration should be applied at run time. By setting this property, the respective configuration will be, by default, applied.
	DateTime format	Selects the time and date format for the DateTime Signal values. Available tokens are - YYYY, YY, Y, Q, MM, MMM, MMMM, D, DD. Further information is available in the "Year, month, and day tokens" chapter under https://momentjs.com/docs/#/parsing/string-format/. For example: DD.MM.YYYY hh:mm:ss
	Group name	Sets the name of the Alarms Group.
	Title text	Sets the text displayed by the component header.
