IGSS Alarm is a fast and powerful alarm handling routine which is an integral part of the IGSS process control system. This is an enormous advantage to both the plant operator and the system designer as all interfacing between alarm management and process supervision and control functions is dealt with automatically by IGSS.
Your plant signals an alarm situation whenever the control process generates an error which may be some electrical equipment not functioning properly, or some measured values stepping out of the predefined limits. Thus it could for instance happen that the water level of a tank level rises dangerously high or a valve did not close properly where it should have done. In all these cases, alarm signals of higher or lesser importance are registered by IGSS and indicated to the operator in various ways:
for evaluation, archiving, reporting and further processing.
