Hi,
I have encounter an issue when trying to custom some events. For instance, if I’m recording an event of an emergency stop, ON should be the “alarm” condition, wich is usually associated with red color, instead of green, as it is shown on the events table. Is there some way to change that for a particular event?
Also, is there a way of recording only one condition of the event?
Thanks in advanced.
October 23, 2018 at 2:39 pm #4470MikhailModeratorHi,
Event color depends on status color of the input channel. I mean you should change colors of Off-On values.
Create your own record in the Units table, for example,
Normal; Alarm; –
And use formulas for setting the status of the input channel:
Cnl; Cnl > 0 ? 114 : 13October 23, 2018 at 2:40 pm #4471MikhailModeratorAlso, is there a way of recording only one condition of the event?
Currently no. Some modifications should be done to implement it.

Once again, thank you. Very clear and simple explanations.
October 23, 2018 at 7:05 pm #4480ngiussaniParticipantI’m sorry to bother you again, but it doesn’t seem to be working with Discrete type (On-Off) and I can’t change the type, as it is a DI in MODBUS. The only way I can think is to make a calculated signal. Is that the only soultion?
P.S.: I was refering to this table view:

Once again, thank you. I was making something wrong with the formulas. The working formula is:
Cnl; (Cnl == 1.0) ? SetStat(1026, 15) : SetStat(1026, 11)
Still, colors in the events table (the one located below the view, with date and time) are shown like the screenshot above: red for OFF, green for ON, wich is the opposite of what I need for the Emergency Stop case.

October 25, 2018 at 6:34 pm #4500ngiussaniParticipantHi Mikhail,
I’m not sure what’s the screenshot you’re asking for. What configuration are you refering to?
October 26, 2018 at 2:47 pm #4504MikhailModeratorInput channels, units that are related to the issue.
October 26, 2018 at 3:51 pm #4507ngiussaniParticipantOK. I’m sorry I wasn’t clear. I solved that issue. Even thou, here’s the screenshot:
I’m still struggling with colors on the Events table. I don’t know if there is anything I can do at all or if it’s an implementation matter, and is that way.
Thanks again.
October 28, 2018 at 7:52 am #4509MikhailModeratorThank you for the images.
You need to open the Units table in Administrator. And create a new row with a new unit. Do at as written above. Then set the new unit for your input channel.October 29, 2018 at 12:34 pm #4512ngiussaniParticipantMikhail,
I’m sorry. I missread your answer. I don’t know why I thought I had to change events, instead of units.
That’s working like a charm.
Thanks again!
October 29, 2018 at 4:39 pm #4513MikhailModeratorCool!
