Re: [foxboro] Alarms priority

Re: Is there a way to have the alarm info sent to a text file on an 8.x
system from a command line utility?

I can think of two approaches:

1) apitst (or even foxtst)
2) MS Excel using an


Regarding apitest, I've never tried it for alarms, but you should be
able to do it with something like:

#!/bin/sh
/opt/aim/ bin/apitst <<INPUT

#commands to apitst

INPUT


Alternatively, load MS Excel and use it to query the data in AIM*. Use
the MS Excel help (search on 'enable macros to run') to learn how to run
macros when an xls file is double clicked.
