Resetting an Alarm Instance to a Non-Ground State

Sometimes you want to set an alarm instance to a state other than Ground. To reset one or more alarm instances to a state other than Ground from the Alarm or Aggregate Alarm Summary window, follow the directions below.

 
  To reset an alarm instance:

  1. Select an alarm instance in the Alarm Summary or Aggregate Alarm Summary window.

    You can also select a number of alarm instances and reset all of them to a particular state at once. All of the instances must be derived from the same alarm definition.

  2. With your cursor positioned over the selected alarm instance, right-click to bring up the reset pop-up menu.
  3. Move your cursor over the Reset to State entry to bring up the state pop-up menu.

  4. Select the state to which you want to reset the instance from the pull-right menu.

    The entry for the alarm instance will show that it is now in the state you selected. The trigger that caused the transition to that state is the built-in trigger USER_RESET.
