X-Force Alarm Analysis
Alarm analysis is basically used for the analyze alarms or events captured from the control system. It is most often used application of X-Force Alarm Suite. Alarm Analysis can run on any computer connected to same network through LAN or WAN connectivity. Alarm Analysis has some type of analyzed reports like frequency, frequency chart, frequency real-time, frequency monitoring, and frequency breakup for the frequency representation of the alarms. Alarm analysis shows message and captured alarm from control system in one pane with all the fields in columns like very familiar excel spreadsheet view. Frequency is the heart of the all running instrument so that Frequency Analysis is the necessary point to find out the performance of loops in system and problematic area which have configured in the control system. has many more standard features including automatic report printing, alarm prioritization and real time alarm filtering. it allows the user to create custom reports using the some specific tools. It use the Microsoft excel. Image

Frequency Analysis
Frequency is the heart of all running instrument so that Frequency Analysis is the necessary point to find out the performance of loops in system and problematic area. Image
Frequency Analysis Chart
Frequency Analysis chart presents the pictorial view for nos. of alarms for comparative analysis. It can describe the following five type of charts for frequency analysis:
Online Frequency Analysis
User can select the required tag and conditions to be monitored. Screen is updated dynamically to reflect the current frequency of particular tag’s alarm with discrimination in types of alarms like HI, HIHI, LO, LOLO. The real time data is always visible on the screen. Image
Frequency Monitoring
It can be configured to generate an internal alarm if a certain message occurs too many or too few times within defined time duration. Image
Frequency Breakup
User can select the required tags and conditions to be monitored for frequency break-up. Screen is showing selected tags list with occurrence time. Screen updates on particular interval to reflect new alarms. Image
Duration Analysis
Duration Analysis shows the time, average, max and minimum time between alarms generated for each Tag name. Image
Tending Alarm
User can view tag list that is currently in alarm condition and waiting for return. Screen is being updated dynamically to reflect the current alarm and removed from the screen on return of particular alarm. Image
Historical Alarm
Alarm Management Package provides the facility to view all the alarms stored in past by just selecting date time range from the menu.
It supports Standard mail types like Lotus Notes, Outlook or Internet (SMTP) to send Reports captured. It can send an email message so as to alert all concerned plant personnel and officials in case of any problem as per plant operating philosophy.
Printing
It prints alarm as and when required, in user defined formats. These formats can be defined during engineering.
Export To Excel
Alarms can be saved to any industry standard format into formatted Microsoft Excel File Database. Image
Export to HTML
Alarms can be saved to any industry standard format into formatted HTML File Database. Image
Custom Query Builder
Alarm Management Package provides custom query which can be build using point and click user interface. No SQL knowledge is required to build complex query. It provides Fields selection to be displayed on screen. Sort Order – Alarms can be sorted by any fields Ascending / Descending. Image
Database Option
It provides facility to edit database through the database option.
Grouping area for column Headers
It can provide facility for grouping area with respect to that column.
Sorting and Filtering
Alarms can be filtered by Date and Time, Source device of alarm, Type of Alarms, Status of Alarm, Tag name / Data point / Loop Name, Group or Area to focus analysis on particular aspects of system. It gives required alarms like alarms by area, alarms by timestamp, alarms by tag name. It performs powerful SQL search queries
