Filter alarm on MappAlarmX depending on User logged

Dear,

I would like to filter some alarms on the MappAlarmX depending on the user logged (Operator, Maintenance…and I’m using the standard User system, not the UserX at the moment) in order to avoid that not “important” alarm trouble the standard operator on the machine.

I didn’t found any information on the Help about that and I’m not sure if it’s possible by configuration or additionnal code ?

Thank you

Sebastien

Hi Sebastien,

The first thought that came to my mind was using Queries. These can be configured in the MpAlarmX configuration and allow you to filter alarms with specific criteria. You could write some code that runs a different query depending on the logged in user.

Just a quick note, I’d recommend making this a separate page or at least togglable. Hiding alarms by default and requiring someone to log out to see them could lead to information being missed, especially if someone forgets to log out. For example, I often look at the highest severity alarms first, but then I find it helpful to see how they were triggered by looking at the “unimportant” alarms. Often those tell a helpful story.

To add to Markus’ suggestion, depending on versions (AS + mappView) used this should be easy to implement in EventScript by generating the filter configuration based on the user logged in.

Dear Markus, Marcel,

Thank you for your feedbacks, I never used the “queries” option on the AlarmX, I will have a look and check if it’s a solution.

And then have a look on a EventScript if the queries are not running.

Have a nice evening.
