Associated with: WITS Application programs.
The Status attribute shows the status of an application program that is running in the Field Device.
The possible status options are as follows:
- Problem :<description of the problem as reported by the Field Device>—The problem descriptions are defined by the vendor. (For further information about a particular problem description, see the Field Device documentation). When the Field Device reports a Problem status, ClearSCADA may raise an alarm. When the 'problem' is resolved, ClearSCADA may log an event. The event logging and alarm are configurable (see Configuring a WITS Application Program)).
- Paused
- Running
- Stopped
- Uninitialized
- Doesn't exist in outstation—This status means that a user has created an application program item in ClearSCADA, but the program does not exist in the Field Device. That is, a user has not yet downloaded the application program, or a user has deleted the program in the Field Device. When a user deletes a program, ClearSCADA may raise an alarm when the Field Device reports the deletion. The alarm is configurable (see Configuring a WITS Application Program)).
When the status of an application program changes, ClearSCADA may log an event. This event logging is configurable (see Configuring a WITS Application Program)).
The possible status events are as follows:
- Application initialized and started
- Application initialized
- Application started
- Application stopped
- Application paused
- Application resumed.
