Is there a way to use the alarm table and structure to display VFD error codes polled though a M221?

[@LeTomasAHUMADA]

Hi there! You will need to read the fault from the drive then assign a bit for each fault and share those bits to the hmi then you will need to use the alarm group on the hmi with those variables

[@alessandroserpi1364]

Great Tutorial!!!!!! Could you explain how to flash the screen in the event of an alarm?

[@LeTomasAHUMADA]

Hi Alessandro! In the next link you can find an example: schneider-electric.box.com/s/08aicdf6rhs0xe1anec7pgo9epar3f37 You can "play" with the properties of the target in the global script when an alarm is activated. The variable is "Target01.Preferences.BacklightOff" (Target01 is the name of my example) I believe this will give the effect of flashing but another solution instead of using the Backlight is to change the colour id.

Thanks for explanation. I Have a project with 1000 alarms to import with his message. When I import the alarms variables with txt file they are not import like "alarms" and I loose the message. I don't want to write again all the alarms message... how can I do ?. Tks for your answer.

[@LeTomasAHUMADA]

Hi Gab Gaz, try to create one alarm with a message then export the variable from the variable list. Then check the structure to add the new ones. I believe this will help you to work faster.

14:03 In what video do you talk about linking RTC to HMI?

[@LeTomasAHUMADA]

Hi there! To be honest I do not remember...I believe it could be a combination of this two videos: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4GtomyDbrKGr8ksi=jmBA2lBTMZk8zvGU kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoDMkneNq8p6qbssi=BJDmFsqviMu04-vS

[@antlink87]

is it possible to send an email or SMS when an alarm is active? I have an ST6 HMI and M221 PLC

[@LeTomasAHUMADA]

Hi there! Using the HMIST6xxx at the moment it is not possible. Using the M221 you can use the SR3MODxx to send sms. For email i do not remember if it has , please check the function blocks for this.

[@user-tm7ry8li9w]

@@LeTomasAHUMADA Hi having same doubt, SMS ,email possible with Modicon M221?

[@LeTomasAHUMADA]

@@user-tm7ry8li9w M221 along the SR3MODxx to send sms. For email, i had a quick look and i do not think is possible with M221 only. Maybe using M172, M241, M251 or M262 for that

[@hanlietaljaard261]

Evetime I struggle am just look up your videos thank you so much for doing this you help me a great deal, can you direct me to a video you have made about alarm severity, what does 1, 2, 3, means is 1 seen as a warning 2 as an alarm but the system can still operate, 3 as an alarm where the system cannot run?

[@LeTomasAHUMADA]

Hi there! I need to make a video related the severity. That is to categorize the alarms you can live without it 😊

Hello Leandro Tomás Oscar AHUMADA How can I make banner for alarms. It's should be show in main page. Thank You..

[@LeTomasAHUMADA]

I have found this FAQ: www.se.com/ww/en/faqs/FA411954/ Even if it is not possible to do it right now (spoiler before you open the FAQ) you can download in the next link an example project with the things that you can do with the HMI. Please simulate and activate an alarm: schneider-electric.box.com/s/fl4bu32tslsqnsewqqdizi2y0oqpfmok (link will expire on 21/10/2021) In the project there is an object that indicate that an alarm is present you can show this in your HMI and when is visible the customer can touch it and go directly to the alarms. Probably this is my workaround for the banner. Another solution could be to have the object "Alarm summary" and disable the title , limit the size of the object and finally show only the "alarm message" column + "ExceptRTN" .
