– If the OPC AE server supports refresh, the Supports Refresh check box
should be selected.
If the selected Alarm Manager relies on refresh from OPC server
whenever a connection to the server has been re-established (and alarms
not part of the refresh will be thrown away).
– If the OPC AE server supports disabling the Supports Disabling check
box should be selected.
If this option is selected, the Disable/Enable Alarm function will be
available based on user permissions.
The Supports Disabling on Condition is a non OPC standard feature
which is not expected to be supported by third party OPC servers. If
selected, the OPC server must support Disable/Enable with
<source:condition> as source.
– If the event collector is not set up as a redundant pair the Require Dual
Acknowledge has no effect.
