Hi 王伟珍,
there is no direct feature of the alarmhandler to support for
a) playing a different sound depending on the alarm severity or
b) to stop the acoustic alarm after a certain time.
But as Maren pointed out, you can launch commands on severity change.
To set a command for all channels of a group, you need to put after the
group definition:
GROUP NULL Linac-Magnets
$SEVRCOMMAND UP_INVALID ca_put ALIMA:ALARM 3
$SEVRCOMMAND UP_MAJOR ca_put ALIMA:ALARM 2
$SEVRCOMMAND DOWN_MAJOR ca_put ALIMA:ALARM 2
$SEVRCOMMAND UP_MINOR ca_put ALIMA:ALARM 1
$SEVRCOMMAND DOWN_MINOR ca_put ALIMA:ALARM 1
$SEVRCOMMAND DOWN_NO_ALARM ca_put ALIMA:ALARM 0
You would need a server application that handles the beeping.
But this is a clumsy solution, because if you acknowledge the alarm, it
will have no influence on the beeping.
Of course you can have another panel to stop the beeping.
At the SLS we have a similar scheme to provide "Alarm area overview
screens":
each major group writes the alarm state to a channel like in the example
above.
We run into problems if several instances of the same alarmhandler
configuration are started and if alarms are disabled in one instance and
not in the other.
If someone has a solution that handles alarm acknowledgements and/or
multiple alh instances, I would be interested.
Happy New Year!
Andreas
