Associating a Mimic Object with the Alarms On System Command

In this example, a simple text box is configured to work as a ViewX Command pick action. The text box, when selected in Run Mode, will trigger the Alarms on System ViewX command (which causes the Alarms List to be displayed with no filters in place).

Example:

An engineer adds a new text box to a Mimic and configures the text box so that it contains the text ‘Display System Alarms’ in white, shown on a red background.

The engineer right-clicks on the text box to display a context sensitive menu, then selects the Pick Action Wizard option. On the Pick Action Wizard, the engineer selects ViewX Command as the type of pick action, then selects Next. On the second page of the wizard, the engineer selects Alarms on System as the ViewX command that will be executed when the text box is selected, then selects Next followed by Finish to complete the configuration.

The Mimic is displayed in Run Mode and the engineer selects the Display System Alarms text box—the Alarms List is displayed and it has no filters, so shows all system alarms (to which the logged on user has access).
