Alarm based trigger

The "alarm-based trigger" reacts to all alarms programmed in the control.

With this function, you can send specific alarms for a certain aspect and acquired status data to MindSphere.

These alarms also contain the user range of alarm numbers that are assigned the machine functions for the machine diagnostics. If machine diagnostics are not performed on the basis of alarm numbers, these error messages cannot be integrated.

The alarm numbers that are triggered can be entered individually or in ranges. You can also hide individual or ranges of alarms from a selection.

When certain alarms occur, you can upload user-defined files to MindSphere.

If you no longer require the configuration, you can deactivate this in the MindSphere application "Shopfloor Management Application" using the slider.
