TopView Alarm Analytics

Alarm Analytics provides local and remote TopView alarm history analysis through interactive tables and charts. Alarm Analytics assist the user with the identification of nuisance or poorly configured alarms, alarm flooding, and time-based alarm activity trends (time of day, shifts, ...).

After selecting the analysis period and alarm filter, TopView Alarm Analytics displays alarm events per monitored point (alarm counts, average duration, and total duration), alarm occurrence by user-defined period (alarm occurrence count for each user-defined interval) and active alarm count over time (total active alarm count and alarm event details during the time range).


Improved Tag/Row Referencing with Tag ID

TopView alarm limits, operations, and AND gate support referencing other monitored TopView points (tags). For example, the alarm condition for point A can reference the alarm or acknowledge state of point B.

When referencing a point (Point B above), previous versions required the user to enter the point's absolute row number or row offset from the current point (Point A above). This syntax was dependent on the order of the points in the the TopView monitored tag list.

The new Tag ID field is a user-given, unique identification for a monitored point and can be used for all tag/row references in TopView in place of absolute or offset row numbers. This allows tag referencing that is independent of the order of the points in the monitored tag list.


TopView SQL beta (TopView for ODBC/OLEDB data sources)

TopView SQL allows users to easily monitor, alarm, and send notification for database query results performed against databases (DBMS), spreadsheets, and files.

TopView SQL supports ODBC or OLEDB data sources including Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Access, MySQL, Paradox, FoxPro, IBM Informix, DB2, ISeries,
PI OLEDB (for OSISoft PI), Microsoft Excel, and Flat files (CSV, tab-delimited, ..)

TopView SQL can be used to monitor data from process data historians, lab systems, inventory systems, and more. Because it supports both ODBC and OLEDB, most DBMS's can be monitored by TopView SQL.


Additional changes and new features include:

  • Alarm History Custom Tasks: Launch custom tasks based on the selected alarm event

  • Date/Timestamp tags: TopView now supports date/timestamp tags as the monitored TopView point data type, including support for date/time-based alarm limit comparison (TopView SQL and TopView PI)

  • TopView Configurator: Tag list now includes Tag Group and Tag ID columns

  • Custom fields: <format> specifier added to customize format of displayed timestamps in custom fields

  • "Gated" Alarm Limit String: TopView engine and Remote Viewer contain "Gated" indicator in displayed alarm limit string if AND gate used in alarm limit settings
