800xA - External Alarm Silence split in two different areas

Hi,

We have two physical areas in plant, different floors, within one 800xA System.

We configured Alarm lists(based on Class) for both areas and we want to somehow split the External Alarm Silence in these two areas.

Which means if the operator in Area 1 hit the External Alarm Silence, it will silence just the alarms in his area and Area 2 will not be affected and vice versa.

Is that possible? Or the External Alarm Silence function is just global and its not possible to change it?

Thanks.

Create unique External Alarm Configurations for each area.

The Silence All verb will of course silence ”all”, but you can just as simple write ”0” or ”false” straight to the OPC property from a push button, PG2 Property Writer or Simple Scripting verb (=hotkey).
