operator took control of that camera. For that reason, the important and
critical Activities are assigned the highest priority when they are defined.
When priorities are implemented, you may find that you lose control of your
camera from time to time because a high priority alarm comes into the
system.
Note
Priorities do not disable an alarming monitor’s sequencing. If a priority 1
alarm comes in and calls up camera 7, and then a priority 2 alarm comes in
and calls up camera 8, you will see the video from camera 8 on the monitor.
How the System Handles Incoming Alarms
When an alarm comes in, the alarm count indicator is displayed on all
alarming monitors in the affected Workstations. In addition, any video,
operator message, and output confirmation messages associated with that
alarm are displayed on the lowest numbered alarming monitor available in
the affected Workstations.
When a second alarm comes in, the alarm count indicator increments by one
on all alarming monitors in the affected Workstations. Any video actions
from that alarm, along with any operator messages and output confirmation
messages, are displayed on the next lowest numbered alarming monitor
available in the affected Workstations.
This alarm handling method continues until all alarming monitors are taken

alarms are sequenced on the highest numbered alarming monitor.
