Re: [foxboro] How can i use 'Clear Page' for all Alarm-Managers

The Common Alarm Group does what you want.

Make sure you have CLR_OPT set to 1 or 2 in your init.user file.

Subject: [foxboro] How can i use 'Clear Page' for all Alarm-Managers

Hi List,

what is the way to configure a redundant alarm manager configuration?

I need the functionality that using the "Clear page" AM-button on one =
AW51C has at the same time the same result on a second AW51C.

What I've already done?

1) Configuring an error free /usr/fox/alarms/*AApan-file

2) Configuring an error free /usr/fox/alarms/*AAtab-file using a =
selfmade script
(my script checks the existence of display files configured in the =
*AApan-file and supresses double entries of Compound:Blocks in the =
*AAtab-file)

3) Configuring an Alarm Manager config-file using AMDC

I avoided the usage of an config-file for every AW/WP. Here a snippet of =
the /usr/fox/alarms/Q7332U/am.log file.

12:10:54 5-3-04 Trying /usr/fox/customer/alarms/cfg/Q7332U.cfg.
12:10:54 5-3-04 Unable to open config file =
/usr/fox/customer/alarms/cfg/Q7332U.cfg
12:10:54 5-3-04 Trying /usr/fox/customer/alarms/cfg/am_def.cfg.

Configuring a *cfg-file for every AW/WP does not solve my problem.

Another point of interest is that I had an running system on V6.1 where =
the functionality had exists. Now at V6.5 and V6.51 is the functionality =
not given or not right configured.

#  WP      CAG      Backup       BLK    TOP   USER          CAG
# LBUG    NAME1      LBUG        DTL    PRIO  DISP         NAME2

Q7332U CAGNAME      Q7331U      ------ ------ ------    ------------
Q7331U#


A solution could be a script that sends an amcmd to the second AW-AM but =
is there no standard foxboro solution built-in?
