reminder to service the valve or actuator by
specified date. It also shows the information
about the last service performed as shown in
Figure 17.
•
Service interval:
this parameter can be
used to set a reminder so that DEPIC-2
will generate an alarm to warn the user to
perform the service on valve or actuator. The
service alarm should be enabled to get an
alarm generation as discussed in the alarm
configuration section.
-
0 (Disabled):
when this parameter has
value 0, it is disabled.
-
1-365:
the interval in number of days to
generate a service alarm.
-
Last service date:
the date when the last
service was performed. This is basically
a date when the service interval was re-
configured.
-
Last service time:
the time when the last
service was performed. This is basically
a time when the service interval was re-
configured.
-
Next service date:
the date when the next
service should be performed or an alarm
will be generated
-
Next service time:
the time when the next
service should be performed or an alarm

4.3.12 Alarm configuration
This section contains the parameters to
configure different critical alarms on the
DEPIC-2 to let user know about a specific
failure that occurred on the device. The
parameters are explained below.
•
Alert alarm:
the DEPIC-2 has two types
mechanism to let user know about fault
conditions on the device. One is the Alert,
which is not critical but still informational and
another is Alarm, which is a critical failure
and requires an immediate attention. This
alarm when enabled, warns user if there is
any active alert on the device. It is up to the
user to browse through the alert file and
find out the specific alert that triggered this
alarm. When disabled, the device will not
report any active alert generation through this
alarm.
•
Service alarm:
this alarm is tied to the
service/maintenance configuration mentioned
in the previous section. When the service
interval is configured and this alarm is
enabled, the device will generate an alarm
when the service period expires to let user
know. When the alarm is disabled, the user
has to manually look at the service parameter
and find out when the next service is due on
the device. This alarm is for information only
and doesn’t indicate any critical failure.
