Hi all
I've done a bit of a search and cannot seem to find anything. I'm exploring using the newer tag-based alarm functionality in the GuardLogix 5380 PLC's that we use. One thing that I cannot understand is how when i'm setting up either an Alarm or an Alarm Definition that I cannot map the 'Limit' to a tag.
Am I missing something or does this really have to be manually set through LogixDesigner if it needs to change? I wouldve thought allowing a user with the correct access should be able to modify these values through the HMI?
Hopefully I am just missing something, but i'd appreciate anyone pointing out a step that I am missing here please.
thanks.
