Issue
How do you get a list of previous operator history on a specific point from the active alarm view?
Environment
CyberStation
Cause
A report will need to be attached to a graphic to see a point's operator text history from the active alarm view.
Resolution
-
Create a report for this point to get the operator text
Source Tab
Data Source: AlarmEvent
Report Type: Alarms-for-an-event-object-with-alarm-enrollment
Type: Text

Path: select the controller the point is in
Member Object: Select the point you need
Time Interval or Log Filter for the desired range
-
Setup a graphic page with a button to launch the report
In the properties of the Active Button
Action: Open Object
Object: This is the path to the report you created in step 1.
-
Setup the point on alarm tab to open the graphic
In the point editor that you want the operator history from, select the Graphic field by setting the path to graphic that contains the button for the report from step 2.
-
When the alarm is triggered in the active alarm view, click on the alarm then the Pinpoint button in the tool bar.
This will launch the graphic with the button for the report you created.
