The channels on simple drivers support a combination of these actions:
- Acknowledge Alarms
- Acknowledge with Comment
- Alarm Response
- Disable Alarms
- Disable Channel
- Disable Comms Logging
- Disable Telnet
- Display Scanners
- Display Sources—(Slave Channels only)
- Enable Alarms
- Enable Channel
- Enable Comms Logging
- Enable Telnet
- Release Exclusive Control—(Systems on which Exclusive Control is enabled)
- Remove Alarms
- Remove with Comment
- Reset Serial Port Statistics
- Take Complete Exclusive Control—(Systems on which Exclusive Control is enabled)
- Take Partial Exclusive Control—(Systems on which Exclusive Control is enabled)
- Unacknowledge Alarms

NOTE: Some simple driver channels support two lines and therefore also support the Switch Line pick action. Whenever the Switch Line pick action is supported, its functionality is summarized in the relevant driver-specific guide.
Most simple driver channels only support single connections and for such channels, any attempts to trigger the ‘Switch Line’ pick action or method in ClearSCADA will have no effect and will be ignored.
NOTE: The options Delete Interface Event, Log Interface Event, Modify Interface Event, Refresh Alarms, and Reprioritize Alarms are also available from the Edit Action, Edit Method, and Pick Action Configuration windows. These options are methods, not pick actions, and are purely for use with the Automation Interface. For information, see the database Schema.
Further Information
‘Core’ pick actions that are common to many database items: see Object Menu Options in the ClearSCADA Guide to ViewX and WebX Clients.
For information on any channel-specific actions that are not listed above, see the relevant driver guide.
