  1. Alarm Help

  2. Points to discuss (from Clara) • Display • Only one line per DPE (fatal, error, warning) • Background colour should fill whole row • Simple version of display with no modification options • More Information • Click to a panel to control the device and give information • Click to view a help screen • Help Files • How to organise them • How to create them • How to display them

  3. Current Alarm Help • Prototype based on discussion at FWWG • Help files are assumed to be HTML but can be other types • Opened using System Settings command of DEN • Each DPE can be given a custom help page • Without a custom help page, a naming convention is used to find the relevant file

  4. Naming convention • Search path is • <proj_path>/help/en_US.iso88591/AlarmHelp/ • Naming convention allows • Help for a particular DPE of a particular Device • Help for a particular Device • Help for a particular DPE of a Device Type • Help for a Device Type • Generic Default Help Page

  5. Naming convention • Sub directories hold the four different types • For devices: • DeviceDPE/ or DeviceDP/ • File name is equal to DP name (with element) • Can include system name or not • All : and / are converted to _ • For device types: • DeviceTypeDPE/ or DeviceType/ • File name is equal to DP Type name (with element) • Can include system name or not • File names can end with “.html”, “.htm”, “.xml” or no suffix

  6. Storing custom help pages • For a DPE you can configure a custom help page • Something outside the naming convention • This is stored in the _general.._string_05 attribute • PVSS Alert Panel • In the original proposal it was also chosen to set the Alert Panel (in the _alert_hdl config) to some generic FW panel • This is not needed as a panel could be opened by writing a custom “onClick” function • This allows the PVSS Alert Panel to remain user definable

  7. Demo

  8. Ideas / Questions • In the example, XML with XSLT is used • Separates contents from layout • XML file is simple to make automatically • Expert has to input text at some point – how? • What other things to do from the Alarm Screen? • Go to the FSM panel • Go to the operation panel • See alarm details… what else?

  9. Points to discuss (from Clara) • Display • Only one line per DPE (fatal, error, warning) • Background colour should fill whole line • Simple version of display with no modification options • More Information • Click to a panel to control the device and giving information • Click to view a help screen • Help Files • How to organise them • How to create them • How to display them
