Hello everyone,
I am new to the site and I am working on my first HMI project. I have been programming Micrologix and SLC PLC for a few years now so I am pretty comfortable with them. I have found several post in the forum that have helped me very much so far on this project.
Here is my hardware/software info: Red Lion G308 connected to a Micrologix 1400 32pt BWA PLC via TCP/IP. I have used Crimson 3.0 for the programming of the HMI.
I am almost finished with the project but I would like to add one more item to all the pages (3). I would like to add some kind of notification on the pages if a new alarm comes into the alarm viewer (which is on page 4). That way if they are on page 1 and an alarm happens on page 3 they will see that there is a new alarm and they should go to page 4 and check it out.
Any ideas on how I should start? I am sure this is one of those things that will make me slap my forehead but as of now I am not sure how to start.
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks
Chris
