The instructions themselves come in two variants: The ALMD for Digital Alarms, and the ALMA for Analog alarms. With instruction based alarms, all of the alarm configuration is does in the Alarm Instruction itself, and the status of the alarm is published at runtime for clients like the PanelView 5000 terminals to subscribe to. Instruction Based Alarms Instructions based alarms are Logix instructions added to a Logix project in Studio 5000 Logix Designer. There are two types of alarms that can be used today in View Designer projects, and in this article I’ll walk you through how I implemented and tested them using a Panelview 5510 and a CompactLogix 5380. But over the last couple of week I’ve come to learn about and appreciate some of these features. I will be honest, when I read the release notes for the latest release(s) of Logix Designer, I didn’t spend much effort on the parts about alarm enhancements with CompactLogix and ControlLogix Controllers.
