An Example of the Usage of Alarm and Alarm Queue
Set alarm 1 enable, its Auto camera is Input 2, Accept Sequence is Sequence 3,
Default Message is Message 1, and Connect Close is Sequence 4, the sequence's
priority is 2, and in sequence 4 there is an ALARMQ function adds Alarm 1 into alarm
queue 1.
Set alarm 2 enable, its Auto camera is Input 3, Accept Sequence is Sequence 5,
Default Message is Message 2, and Connect Close is Sequence 6, the sequence's
priority is 3, and in sequence 6 there is an ALARMQ function adds Alarm 2 into alarm
queue 1.
Set alarm queue 1's Monitor 1 as Mon 1, Monitor 2 as Mon 2, Blank source as input 4,
Keyboard as K/B 1.
When Alarm 1 closes, the Sequence 4 starts, Alarm 1 is added into Alarm Queue 1, and
at the same time Input 2 switches to Mon 1, Message 1 is displayed on Mon 1. In another
word all the Alarm 1's actions works on Mon 1. K/B 1 will displays 'Q 1,Alarm 1'.
When Alarm 2 closes later, the Sequence 6 starts, Alarm 2 is added into Alarm Queue 1,
because alarm 2's priority is higher then Alarm 1 so Alarm 2's actions will work on Mon 1,
and Alarm 1's actions will work on Mon 2. K/B 1 will displays 'Q 1,Alarm 2'.
At this moment, presses key 'Alarm Ack' on K/B 1, Alarm 2 will be deleted from Alarm
Queue 1, Alarm 1's actions works on Mon 1, alarm queue 1's Blank source Input 4
switches to Mon 2. Alarm 1 Accept sequence 'sequence 3' starts.
Press key 'Alarm Ack' on K/B 1 again, Input 3 switches to Mon 2 will be deleted from
Alarm Queue 1, alarm queue 1's Blank source Input 4 switches to Mon 1. And the K/B 1
will display 'No active queue'. Alarm 2 Accept sequence 'sequence 5' starts.
