I am not sure if I am having an issue with my alarms or just not using them properly.
I have programmed all my alarms in logic and have attach them all to the alarm section in PV800. So my alarms appear properly on the HMI when triggered but they do not hold. If they are acknowledge or cleared on the alarm banner they then disappear. I do have an alarm list page on the HMI but when cleared button is pressed they all go away (clear).
Is there no way to hold an alarm until I unlatch it in my PLC program (meaning it is fixed). Saying it's an Ok and then allow it to be acknowledged?
Thanks for looking!
