Tips and Tricks

Date and Time

It is important to make sure the EasyIO FG controller Real Time Clock (RTC) is sync to local date and time and time zone before proceeding. AlarmDB kit is using controllers time and date for alarms.

Backups

Alarms will be logged to the common controller database. So when you make backup of you controller alarms will be backup also.

Alarms colors:

Based on this color scheme adjust your alarm priorities in CPT application to get most desirable effect. There is no rules here.

Typically I use:

• Red - critical alarms
• Yellow - warnings
• Light blue - Low level alarms
• Dark blue - information alarms
• Green - normal state.
• Grey - Offline status
