Alarm Server - Data Not Ready

Anthony

Hi All,

I am attempting to test some alarms in our standalone dev environment for Citect 2016 but cannot get the alarm server working.

It just gives the Hardware alarm: Alarm, General, Data not ready

I've have tried various system setups with the setup wizard, Multi-process or not, default user, no user, specific user.

The alarm sever starts and indicates no errors.

  • Hi Anthony,
    That definitely looks like the source of the problem. Next thing to check out, is what is in the systems.xml file in the project folder you are trying to run. Perhaps it needs to be recreated (I believe it is created during compile). Do you have any other software co-existing on this machine? E.g. the ClearSCADA product. This could also interfere with Citect's Alarm backend, since it is based on the same core.
