To indicate important events within this table XiltriX uses a color code to highlight
exceptional temperature values and alarm messages. The colors and their meanings
are listed in Table 3-1.
Table 3-1: Listing of Existing Table Color Codes and Their Meaning
Color
Meaning
Orange Temperature exceeded the set minimum or maximum limit value or the
door is open (within delay time)
Blue Temperature exceeded the set minimum limit value
(delay time has passed)
Red Temperature exceeded the set maximum limit value
(delay time has passed)
Yellow An alarm has been canceled but not reset yet
Purple An alarm has been reset but an activation delay is configured and active 17
Below the just described table there is another smaller one, which offers information
of digital input devices that can be bound but do not have to be bound to a single
machine. Figure 3-3 shows an installed start/stop switch for fridge number 4. 18 This
switch can be used to stop the monitoring of this device. In case of pushing the
corresponding button, the monitoring of this device will be stopped. But at the same
time an alarm would go off because the delay time for this device is set to zero. This
can be seen in the DS column.
Of course, a scenario like that does not make sense in practice, but this data is taken
from the demo system. It is only made up for testing purposes and should only show
the technical possibilities of XiltriX. In reality, a button like this could be useful, for
instance, to disable alarms for cleaning purposes. Of course, a delay time higher
than zero minutes is necessary. Other attachable switches and their functionality will
be presented within section 3.3.1.
Another important element of the main screen is the status bar above the just
described tables because it offers an overview of the whole system. Monitored
devices can be grouped into up to 16 different departments. The color of the
corresponding department button indicates, whether every machine within this group
is operating as expected or not. Table 3-2 gives an overview of the existing colors
and their meanings.
