Application Specific Categorization
The SVI FF provides another level of configuration, which allows mapping of diagnostic events
to one of the following categories of actions:
Device Failure – You need to take immediate action – the device is failing or may be
failing at any moment.
Device Needs Maintenance Now – You need to schedule maintenance procedure now.
Device Needs Maintenance Soon – You should schedule maintenance procedure.
No Action – You have decided that no action should be taken if this alert condition is
detected.
Figure 91 illustrates the default configuration for the ALERT_ACTION parameter.
You can modify the alert actions related to valve and actuator diagnostic events. As indicated
in Figure 91, the positioner specific alert actions are not configurable – they are hard wired to
the corresponding notification.
The transducer BLOCK_ERR parameter is used to show the mapping results. For the hosts that
do not support Transducer blocks, a special configuration is provided, so that the report is
duplicated in resource BLOCK_ERR parameter. This is done though the Alert Action parameter
configured to map to the Resource block.
