A major alarm is a real alarm and indicates an error. In the
record, you can specify an upper and a lower limit: for example for AI and AO
record you have to configure the fields HIHI and LOLO (and additionaly the
fields HHSV and LLSV have to be set to "
MAJOR"
).
An operator should react to a major alarm and solve the problem. On displays , an error is shown in red.
