| Sorting/Filtering | |
| Operators can sort and filter alarm messages using keys, which are alarm attribute identifiers included in the alarm messages. Process alarm, system alarm, and other filters are available by default. Users can flexibly configure and create filters. | |
| Eclipsing | |
| Alarm messages that are repeatedly activated by the same tag can be collapsed and displayed as a single line. Eclipsing reduces the number of alarm messages that are displayed and allows operators to identify critical alarms more easily. | |
| Shelving | |
| Alarms of lower priorities can be temporarily moved to “shelves.” Operators can shelve alarms and filters manually, and alarms identical to these shelved alarms can be automatically moved to the shelves. If there are any related recovery messages, they can be also shelved. If a filter is shelved, alarms that match the filter's rules can also be automatically moved to the shelves. | |
| Load Shedding | |
| If too many alarms are generated in a short period of time due to an unexpected event, predefined filters can be automatically activated to reduce the operators’ monitoring load. | |
