Warnings and Alarms in the FACINFO table are tied to Alarm Priority.

  • 1 — Warnings Exist is set if there are any Alarms or Warnings with a priority < 50.
  • 2 — Alarms Exist is set only if the Alarms or Warnings set have a priority of >= 50 (which is Alarms Priority 2).

In the following example, only the Low Warning would ever set a 2 — Alarms Exist. The priority for the High Alarm is not high enough to set the 2 — Alarms Exist.
