False Alarms on alarm list + reload not working when project name changed
Hello
I have got a 150 alarm variables that are have an alarm limit set for limit 1('as alarm' and 'to acknowledge' only ticked) Limit 0 is the normal state and 'as alarm' not ticked on Limit 0.
About 10% of them appear on the alarm list even though the alarm is not active in the PLC runtime.
I've also put a Numerical Valve box on the alarm list page for one of these variables and Zenon shows that the alarm is not active = 0. Also when I cause that point to be in alarm state, it appears on the alarm list (now there are 2 alarms with the same name). When it is acknowledged and clears in the PLC, it does clear but not the original one that was displayed when the runtime was started. I did delete one variable, re-imported and it worked as expected. I don't want to do this to all of these false alarms.
What can I try to get the alarms to work as expected
Also last week I changed the project name (under General, project name). All is working ok apart from reload stopped working, as soon as I change back to the original name, the reload works - what else do I need to do to get the reload working when the project name is changed?
Appreciated all your help
