Alarm List Button

Change the Alarm List to display a different category of alarms. There are 6 possible alarm list categories (Active, Current, Configured, Disabled, History, Unacknowledged). Draw one instance of the alarm list button for each category that you might want to see displayed in the list. (See: Legacy Alarm List)

The properties dialog for the Alarm List Button:

 

Name

Used only when this button is in the same page or widget as a legacy alarm list, in which case it is required to associate this button with the legacy list.

If this widget is used with a modern Alarm List, it will be associated with that list automatically. If a page will contain two Alarm List widgets, each list and its related control buttons must be grouped into a widget.

Button Label

Enter the text you want to display. Labels should be clear but short, as the length of the label determines the size of the button.

If the label is to include an ampersand (&), enter two ampersands (&&).

Tool Tip Label

Enter the text that you want to display on this button's tool tip (which opens when the mouse pointer is rested on this button). Use this field to compensate for the brevity of the button label by providing a more complete description.

Starting List

Select the category of alarms that you want to display in the alarm list when this button is clicked. This can be one of:

  • History
  • Active
  • Unacknowledged
  • Current
  • Disabled
  • Configured
