This page is intended to be used as suggestions for system use. It is in no way a requirement to follow these guidelines.

In the Alarm Viewer, changes can be made to the reporting, labeling, values, and various other settings.

Value Changes in Customization Manager

Value Changes allow the user to change the words that display per an event type. This can simplify terms for End Users so they can understand events better.

Ex. “AC power fail at controller %” can be changed to “No Power at %”

  • Open the ID icon in the top left of Velocity.

  • Under System select Customization Manager, then Alarms (Other events under Return to Normal Events or Software can be changed as well)

  • The message, font and size can be changed

Value Changes in Alarm Viewer Properties

  • Open Alarm Viewer

  • Select 'Alarm Viewer Properties' on the Alarm Viewer pane

  • Under the General tab, the maximum lines displayed, colors, and what types of events displayed can be changed.

  • Under the Filters tab, the Event Viewer can be filtered by various criteria.
