By the way, EVENT messages are not shown on the CAD display or printed.=20 The Alarm Manager and the printer driver filter these messages out. The only way to see them is to record them in a suitable application. Applications that have been used include: 1) AIM*Historian Message groups 2) The Power Group's SOE package 3) FoxAMI Regards, =20 Alex Johnson Invensys Systems, Inc. 10900 Equity Drive Houston, TX 77041 713.329.8472 (voice) 713.329.1700 (fax) 713.329.1600 (switchboard) alex.johnson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Crivellotto, Davide Sent: Thursday, January 04, 2007 4:17 AM To: foxboro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [foxboro] R: GE-GSM Ethernet Alarms Dimitris, you can verify something at both sides. DCS side: Once you configured the Excel file (and, of course, placed the map file in the correct folder, and rebooted the AW), take a look at the log files, especially the AOS log. If some error is reported, probably you have to increase the Object Manager and FoxAPI maximum sizes, following the procedure written in the manual. I had similar problems in the past, and I solved going from 40000 (10000 x number of controllers) to 60000. Then, reboot the AW. MarkVI side: - Verify if all alarms are configured, and appear on the GE HMI alarm list. If they appear on GE HMI, they should appear also on the I/A CAD. - Verify if the "missing" alarms are configured (at GE side) in the same way as the working ones. If they are configured as "EVENTS", you have to get it at I/A side as SOE messages. Hope this helps, Davide -----Messaggio originale----- Da: foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Per conto di Dimitris Legakis Inviato: Thursday, January 04, 2007 9:57 AM A: foxboro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Oggetto: [foxboro] GE-GSM Ethernet Alarms Hello list, I have a gsm ethernet connection with GE MarkVI system. However something=3D20 strange happens regarding the alarms that are supposed to be sent to the DCS=3D20 Process Alarm list. Although the config Excel file is correctly configured (I have set it to receive 600 alarms from GE) only a very small number of alarms depict in the=3D20 DCS alarm list. To me, it seems that it is a MarkVI issue since from the DCS point of view=3D20 there is not much to configure for the alarms (only the source MarkVI=3D2= 0 workstations and the number of alarms). Does anyone have a clue on this? Is it indeed a MarkVI issue or I am missing=3D20 something from the DCS side?
