I am building an application which
should configure/monitor alarms on locally deployed numeric double
shared variables.
I don't seem to be able to set
fractional alarm levels neither through Project Explorer nor through
Distributed System Manager. E.g. I try to set level of HI_HI alarm to
1.50. What I see is that the values does change when I enter it, but
it gets rounded up to the closest integer if I open Properties for
this shared variable once again (or use property node to read it).
If I use property node to set the
levels I am able to get them set to fractional values. There is an
issue with auto-acknowledgement of the alarm in the this case though
(the alarm does not get auto-acknowledged when the variable's value
gets back to non-alarm range).
I would appreciate any comments on the
issues I'm experiencing.
