How to display operator actions on the DefaultSoE alarm page?

Hi,

We are currently working on an ASM/Situational Awareness project, with a primary requirement to display operator actions (e.g. button press) on the SOE Alarm pages. 

We tried to use the AlarmSumAppend family of functions to append user events into the Alarm Summary.  However, these events are not visible on the SOE alarm page, even though system events are displayed (such as user logged in, server site changes etc). The ability to view user/SOE events is particularly important for event reconstruction purposes.

The SA SOE alarm page uses the AlarmListCreate function to create an alarm list with an alarm_type of '15 – Sequence of events with configuration events filtered out'.  If we display on an Alarm Summary page of alarm_type '10 - All summary alarms' we can view user events using AlarmSumAppend("* Myevent") or re-using existing alarm entries AlarmSumAppend("SomeAlarmTag") etc.

How can we display these user actions/events onto the DefaultSoE alarm page?

Even if we were to build an Alarm Summary page, it does not display system events (such as login/logout server restarts etc).

We are working in Citect SCADA 8.1 / 8.2 Beta.

Thanks.

  • You can use the SOEEventAdd() function to add you own entries to the SOE. You could add an SOE-item to your equipment types to add one alarm for every piece of equipment. If you use this alarm as an argument in the SOEEventAdd() function it becomes easy to filter the operator actions for the selected piece of equipment. I've already added a list to the information pane which shows the SOE entries for the selected piece of equipment.
