Copy Alarms

This section displays when you click the Copy All button on the Application toolbar. It allows you to copy the event enrollment objects and the intrinsic alarm properties associated with a BACnet object (source object) to one or more BACnet objects (target objects). This process creates new event enrollment objects for each target object, and overwrites the target object’s intrinsic alarm properties with the properties of the selected object.

This feature has two tabs: Targets and Activity.

Targets Tab

This tab displays by default and lets you build the list of objects you want to copy the alarms to. You build the list by dragging and dropping the objects from the System Browser. This tab also lets you initiate the copy operation.

Activity Log

This tab provides status information of the latest copy procedure. This feature runs in the background, so you can begin a procedure and then work with other management station applications. The results of all copy operations display until the client management station is closed or the user logs off. Therefore, no archive of the copy operations is saved.
