AlarmWorX32 is a distributed enterprise-wide alarm and events management system. Available in the standard GENESIS32 suite of application, or as a stand-alone Open Series component, AlarmWorX32 offers the tools you need to deliver real-time alarm information throughout your system.
AlarmWorX32
has the distinction of being the first OPC compliant alarming product
based on the OPC Alarm & Events specification. That means it can easily
plug-n-play not only with ICONICS alarm components, but other 3rd-Party
alarming software as well.
There are actually several modules that together comprise AlarmWorX32:
Live Alarm
Viewer ActiveX
Drop
this ActiveX Control in the provided AlarmWorX32 Container, within any
GraphWorX32 HMI Display, an HTML Internet/Intranet based WEB page, or
any other ActiveX Container, and it automatically configures itself to
deliver live alarms in a scrollable window. Easily customize the view
via its properties page to control the colors, fonts, columns, rows, alarm
filtering, subscriptions, hot-links, and more

Historical Alarm Analysis ActiveX
Alarms logged to a database can be a chore to sort through and analyze.
ICONICS solves this problem with its powerful Historical Alarm Analysis
ActiveX. Easily create filtered reports, pie charts, bar plots, and even
export to custom Crystal Reports. At the click of a button, find out which
alarm is occurring most often, see if there are certain "trouble-spots",
review downtime, and more.

Alarm Server
Configurator
Alarm
Configuration is easy with the Alarm/Event Configuration Explorer. Define
your own alarms on any OPC Data and/or expression (complex combinations
of OPC Data), choosing among Analog Limit alarms, Deviation, Rate-of-Change,
and Digital alarms. In keeping with the open standards employed throughout
GENESIS32 architecture, your alarm configurations are saved to an Access
or SQL database.

OPC Alarm
Server
Once the alarms are configured, the OPC Alarm Server takes care of monitoring
the live data, posting new alarms throughout your network. This component
runs in the background (even as an NT Service if so desired), and is tuned
to give your system the performance required of an alarming system.
OPC Event Server
The ICONICS GenEvent OPC Alarm Server automatically takes care of delivering
system-level events and operator-defined events throughout your enterprise
system. Audit trails, keeping track of module events, broadcast messages,
and more are all handled by this plug-n-play component.
Alarm Logger
The
AlarmWorX32 Logger captures alarms to Access, SQL 7.0 or Oracle databases.
It also can print out the information to one or even a redundant set of
printers. Create alarm reports and calculations with Microsoft's built
in VBA scripting language. Alarm calculations can be performed on individual
tags or groups of tags.

Alarm Container
AlarmWorX32 delivers a "Container" application which can host
not only the Live and Historical ActiveX controls, but also other 3rd
Party controls as well. It also offers the rich Microsoft Visual Basic
for Applications (VBA) scripting language. Use this, or other containers
(e.g., GraphWorX32) to fulfill your alarm viewing needs.
