Stay Informed

Vuniq provides a straight-forward system for monitoring process alarms. Alarms are organised by groups, and alarm conditions are constantly evaluated against static or dynamic set-points. Alarm groups can be assigned colors to provide further visual cues on the nature of alarms. Each alarm point can be individually configured to perform different actions, such as popping-up the alarm summary window, toggling a flag in the PLC, playing an audio file, or sending out an SMS message.

Current Alarms

When a new alarm occurs, the alarm summary window pops up. If the alarm window is in the way, the popup feature can be disabled by a single click. You can sort the list of active alarms by start time, alarm name, alarm group, status, or description. In addition, you can use the relax feature to get rid of alarms which are of no interest at the moment. Clicking the Refresh button will restore all active alarms to the list. Acknowledging alarms can be done for all active alarms or for individual alarms.

Unlimited History

Alarms can also be logged to the alarm log, a database table automatically maintained by Vuniq. The alarm log maintains information such as alarm start and end times, the process value, acknowledge time and the duration of the alarm in seconds. The alarm log table uses alarm colors for displays and lets you export the data to .csv files, filter the data by date or quickly search for a specific alarm or value.
