Well, you could do something like this:
1) Use dedit to extract the tags in each graphic
2) Create a text file with tag names in the first column and display
name (full path) in the second.
3) Configure an unused button the CAD to run a script and pass to the
script the C:B of the selected alarm and a DM name
4) Have the script grep the index file for the display name and use the
AM command send_to_dm to tell the associated DM to change its display by
sending it the appropriate DM command.
B0700AT (various commands) and B0193RV (list of AM keywords) have the
information you need to get the C:B and pass it to a script.
All in all this shouldn't take very long to create.

Subject: [foxboro] Alarm Manager Configuration; user_disp and Foxpanel
Hi,
the alarm manager command "user_disp" functionality is based on the
Foxpanel or Annunciator keyboard configuration (/usr/fox/alarms/*pan
*tab files).
How can I configure a relationsship between display and compound:block
for ALL displays that we have? The Foxpanel configuration is limited to
a low number of buttons. This is acceptable for that specific case.
But what can I do in the case where I want create thousands of
relationsships between compound:blocks and displays? Or is it possible
to configure virtual buttons within Foxpanel or within the source files?
use case: The operator should be able to call up a display for every
compound:block in the current alarm display.
Regards,
Andreas
