Using the Process Database

Once you create a process database, your SCADA server can monitor process conditions and report alarms. Alarms occur when an incoming value exceeds a pre-defined limit. Using the iFIX WorkSpace, you can draw and animate any object by rotating, coloring, or scaling it when an alarm occurs. These visual cues help operators respond to alarms in a timely fashion. For more information on reporting alarms, refer to the Implementing Alarms and Messages manual.
