Hello everyone. I am currently developing a system that requires two alarm banners with different event subscriptions: one for a specific area known as "SpecialArea" and another for the entire plant excluding "SpecialArea". The second banner is already in place at the plant, but it is currently reading all alarms due to the lack of a configured subscription. I am aware that it is possible to manually configure a subscription for this second banner by selecting everything except for the "SpecialArea". However, I am hesitant to do this as it would require constant updates whenever new alarms or data shortcuts are created by plant engineers. Therefore, I am looking for a solution where the subscription excludes "SpecialArea". Is this feasible?
Can someone provide assistance?
What is the difference between ME and SE? Understanding the distinctions between ME (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis) and SE (Systematic Exertion) can help in accurately diagnosing and treating these conditions. Let's delve into the characteristics and symptoms of each to shed light on their unique attributes.

To enhance your alarm system, simply add another alarm server. In the "Event Subscriptions" tab of the alarm banner, utilize the "Scope" button to select the server that contains the desired events. Customize your alarms by placing them in the server of your choice. Easily transfer alarms from one server to another by using the export function. This streamlined process ensures seamless management of your alarm system across multiple servers.
In response to Cheeseface's suggestion to add another alarm server and utilize the "Scope" button in the "Event Subscriptions" tab to select the desired events, you can easily transfer alarms between servers using the export function. While this solution seems promising, there may be concerns about the potential impact of adding a second alarm server. Will this affect communication or require additional services on the host machine? It's essential to consider any potential interference with the existing alarm server. Thank you for the helpful advice.
Hello! It does sound like a challenge maintaining the alarm banner manually with continuous updates. While I'm not sure about the specifics of the system you're using, I would suggest looking into APIs or scripting languages supported by your system. It might be possible to script the creation and modification of your alarm subscriptions in a way that automatically excludes "SpecialArea". This would allow for a more dynamic system that can adapt to changes and new alarms within the plant, reducing the manual labour required. However, before moving to implement this, do ensure that such changes are in line with your plant's policy and procedures.
Hello, it's quite a pickle you're in! While the manual configuration route seems cumbersome, you could potentially leverage scripting to automate the process. This means whenever new alarms or data shortcuts are created, the script would run and update the exclusions. However, this largely depends on how your existing system or code is structured, along with the exact functions you're using. It might involve some initial setup, but could save you numerous manual updates down the line. If you share more about what platform and tools you're using, the community could probably give you a more tailored solution.
It sounds like you're on the right track with your system setup! Instead of manually managing exclusions for your alarm subscription, you might consider setting up a dynamic filtering mechanism where the subscription automatically updates to exclude any alarms tied to "SpecialArea." This could be achieved using tagging or metadata associated with the alarms, allowing you to set a rule-based subscription. If your system supports it, leveraging API calls that check for the latest alarms while enforcing those exclusion criteria could save you a lot of time and effort in the long run.
It sounds like you're tackling a complex but interesting challenge! One possible approach could be to implement a dynamic subscription filter that automatically excludes alarms from "SpecialArea" based on predefined criteria. If your system supports event grouping or tagging, you might be able to leverage that to streamline updates. Additionally, using a logic layer that intelligently categorizes alarms could save you from manually adjusting the subscription each time new alarms are added. This way, you can maintain a clean separation without the cumbersome overhead of constant manual intervention!

Answer: Answer: Yes, it is possible to configure the alarm event banner to exclude a specific area like "SpecialArea" by setting up a subscription that filters out alarms from that area.
Answer: Answer: One approach to avoid constant manual updates is to create a dynamic subscription that automatically excludes alarms from "SpecialArea" as they are created or modified by plant engineers.
Answer: Answer: Manually configuring a subscription may require continuous monitoring and updating whenever new alarms or data shortcuts are added, which can be time-consuming and prone to errors.
