Hello everyone,
I'm developing a test application in AVEVA Plant SCADA (2023 R2) and need to implement a robust Sequence of Events (SOE) system to track operational activities in real-time and historically.
My goal is to monitor important state changes like "Pump 1 Started," "Pump 1 Stopped," "Valve Opened," etc., and keep them separate from the critical process alarms.
My Current Approach:My current solution is to utilize the existing Digital Alarm System by creating a new Alarm Category (e.g., Category 10) dedicated solely to these operational events. I then assign this category to my digital variable tags, along with the corresponding ON/OFF event messages.
The Problem:
I am facing two main difficulties in separating the data:
-
Real-Time Display: I cannot figure out how to create a separate Graphics Page that displays ONLY the events from my custom category (e.g., Category 10), excluding all standard process alarms.
-
Historical Data: Similarly, I need to know how to filter the Historical Event/Alarm Log so that users can view just the operational events (Category 10) in a separate Historical Display (or Report), completely independent of the regular alarms.
OR How to enable when it's opened only the alarms with category 10, not all of them.
Could you please provide a tutorial, specific configuration steps, or the necessary Cicode to achieve this separation for both the real-time display and the historical logging/reporting?
Thank you in advance for your help!
