Hello all,
I got a requirement from a customer, who wants PcVue to locate a failure based on the triggered alarms: the failure occurred between the device with ON alarm and the device without alarm. And then, PcVue triggers an SMS to notify the location of the failure.
See the below screenshot for detail.
Is PcVue smart enough to locate the failure address based on the triggered alarms? The grid maybe more complex than the one above.
Please comment!

What is the protocol? Maybe we have some "expert".

Thx, Lodovic. Yes, i am looking for the experts help.
The protocol is "Modbus II".

It's not to PcVue to be smart, but to the program which will treat all the information. PcVue only does what you tell it to do 😉
Modbus II is a protocol which was specially designed for Schneider Electric Telecontrol devices (G200, Flair200C, T200). Usually it is configured through the labelled version version of PcVue called L500 (Easergy solution).
By the way, we're currently working on a sepecific add-on: "dynamic colorization". This kind of requirement can be included in it. But that will be only available with version 11.
If you want to define that there is a failure is located on specifi section, youneed:
- first, to creat an alarm for each section
- associate to an expression like : = Device.1.1.2.Voltage != Device.1.1.1.Voltage
- then with an event, you just have to send alarms
Note that if you use correct names for your variables, you'll be able to find all the alarms between Device.0 and your faulty section with a kind of recursive function.

Haha, i learned that Florent you are smart! :cheer:
I did not think about creating an alarm for each section, all i thought was based on the exiting alarms. 🙁
It'll be great if PcVue can have "Dynamic colorization" function, later because we got this kind of requirement also.
Thanks again, Florent!
