4.7.7 Filtering alarm displays

Smart makes it possible to filter the alarms displayed in the control elements.
As a result, it is possible to configure an alarm list that only shows alarms relating to faults
in the plant, for example, and another alarm list that contains notes on production. In the
client−server system, it is therefore also possible to show only those alarms that are
important for the work station and, nevertheless, to retain the data centrally.
1. Click the AlarmList control element on the right at the top on the small triangle.
The "AlarmList Task" menu appears.
2. In the menu, click AlarmFilter (Classes: ; Groups ...).
The "AlarmFilterItemEditor" dialog opens. The dialog enables the selection of alarm
groups and alarm classes. Only the alarms that are in the groups selected here are
shown in the control element.
3. Double−click the entry Grp1.
The "Grp1" alarm group is selected.
4. Click OK to close the dialog.
5. Press [F5] to start the project and set the four switches Msg1 to Msg4.
Only the alarms in "Grp1" are shown in the alarm list. However, the status bits show
that the alarms in "Grp2" have also been generated. The filter is therefore only actually
restricted to what is shown in the control element.
