Property Description 
<ActiveAlarm> 
If the input data point is updated and matches the conditions defined by 
any of the active alarm condition sets, it is considered an active alarm. In 
this case, the Alarm Notifier will use its active destinations. You can 
create as many active alarm condition sets as you want per Alarm 
Notifier. 
The active alarm condition sets for an Alarm Notifier are signified by a 
list of <ActiveAlarm> elements. For a description of the properties that 
must be defined within each <ActiveAlarm> element, see Active and 
Passive Alarm Condition Sets on page 8-15. 
<PassiveAlarm> 
If the input data point is updated and matches the conditions defined by 
any of the passive alarm condition sets, it is considered a passive alarm. 
In this case, the Alarm Notifier will use its passive destinations. You can 
create as many passive alarm condition sets as you want per Alarm 
Notifier. 
The passive alarm condition sets for an Alarm Notifier are signified by a 
list of <PassiveAlarm> elements. For a description of the properties that 
must be defined within each <PassiveAlarm> element, see Active and 
Passive Alarm Condition Sets on page 8-15. 
<AlarmDest> 
Each <AlarmDest> element defines a group of active and passive alarm 
destinations the Alarm Notifier will use. The active destinations are 
signified by a list of <ActiveDest> child elements within the 
<AlarmDest> element. The passive destinations are signified by a list of 
<PassiveDest> child elements within the <AlarmDest> element. For a 
description of the properties that must be defined within each of these 
child elements, see Active and Passive Alarm Destinations on page 8-16. 
Each <AlarmDest> element also contains 2 global elements: its index 
number (UCPTindex), and its enable data point (UCPTdestEnable). The 
<UCPTdestEnable> property is optional. You can reference a 
SNVT_Switch data point by its name (UCPTpointName) here. The 
<AlarmDest> will then be enabled when that data point is set to 100.0 1, 
or disabled if that data point is set to 0.0 0. You could set this data point 
with a L
ONWORKS switch, or with the Event Scheduler application. 
This allows you to enable or disable an Alarm Notifier’s destination sets 
under different circumstances. 
8.2.1.2.1  Input Data Points 
The following table describes the properties that you must define within each <Point> 
element. As described in the previous section, each <Point> element defines an input data 
point for the Alarm Notifier. Each time any of the input data points are updated, the Alarm 
Notifier will check if it has reached an alarm condition. 
If an input data point is updated and meets an active or passive alarm condition, then an 
alarm notification will be loggeed, and the applicable passive or active alarm destinations 
will be used.
