Hi,

I hava a comfortpanel with several alarms. I have created 3 alarmclasses for which the alarms are connected to one of them regarding the class for each alarm.

I would like to know either the status for each alarms if it is acknowledged or not via a bit sent to plc or best of all if we could check the status for each alarmclass if there is any unacknowlwedged alarms in the alarmclass and if so set a bit in PLC.

I will use the function with an alarmsender connected to 3 outputs at the PLC, to send alarms to personell at duty.

I have used several other panel brands that has a function like I describe above but can't find a function for it in comfortpanel.

Is this possible to solve in Comfortpanel?

Best regards

Urban

Ok I tested the first solution and it is exactly what I was looking for.. but it's available for WinCC Runtime only, Comfort Panels don't have this option

Second solution seems to be not working too (I commented under the post)

so we have no solution till now
