We are having a really hard time keeping all the serila alarm/event
printers on various control systems throught the mill maintained/fed.
As a result I have embarked upon a project to replace these with some
old PC's. Part of this project will be to parse these alarm prinouts,
and insert teh results inot a database, that will be searchable via a
web interface.
What I need, at the moment, is an education on the format of the alarm
printouts generted by our IA systems.
It appears that each alarm causes 2 lines to be printed on the printer,
it also appears that these are of at leats 2 differnt formats. System
alarms, which start with the time/datestamp, and non-system alarms that
start with the compund:block. Is this correct? Could anyone explain, in
gory detail these 2 formats?
Also, are they a fixed format, or are the configurable? If they are
configurabel, where is the magic config file stored?
We are at version 6.1 if it matters (I hope it doesn't, as this would
imply problems at some future time, when we upgrade).
Any information at all, would be greatly appreciated
