alarm acknowledgement

[Terry Cornall <Terry.Cornall@synchrotron.org.au>]

Hi All

Perhaps someone can point to me to the doco that describes how an acknowledgement can be sent to an alarmed record?

I see that there is a field ACKT that if set to YES means that an alarm must be acknowledged and is latched until it is, and I see reference to Channel Access providing a method to do this but I can’t find the details. Is there any way (other than installing the ALH alarm handler gui) that I can acknowledge (and presumable reset) a transient alarm in a record? I was hoping for something as simple as a caput….

 

Thanks in advance.
