AlarmList Item Selection...

Hi all.

I seen it from somewhere but I can’t find it…where I can find some example to select an alarm item in AlarmList plugin (obviously by code :slight_smile: ?

Thanks.

Ciao.

The AlarmList will automatically jump to the newest alarm when you switch to the view where it is used or the Alarm Manager workspace in the Smart Client.

The user can switch to another alarm line but the is no method to switch to another alarm line by use of code.

Thanks for your reply, Bo.

My problem is that I have developed my custom sensors view on the Map (based on sensor monitor). I also customized the AlarmPreview plugin. My requirement is that when I click on the icon sensor on the map, AlarmPreview is displayed on the video. I am in an MFA context and I had difficulty hooking alarms to sensors on the map. Then from the context menu of the sensor on the map, selecting “Show Alarms” does not show anything. So I don’t know how to force the display of the associated AlarmPreview. I hope I was clear :slight_smile:

Thanks.

Ciao.

Unfortunately there is no functionality in MIP to control the Alarm List and pick an alarm line.

As I can really see how this would be very useful I will make a request for enhancement with Milestone. Then this functionality will be evaluated and considered for future development. I cannot say when or even if this functionality will be developed.

Good news.

In MIP SDK 2020R3 a new enhancement has been developed.

Alarm Plugin has been extended with functionality to allow other plugins to select a specific alarm. A plugin can now send a message containing the id of the alarm and the id of the window containing the alarm plugin. The plugin in the given window will then select the corresponding alarm. If the id of the window is null, all windows with the alarm plugin will select the corresponding alarm.
