Alarm management software: see machine alarms in one place and prioritize them, then trace them to the root cause
SYMESTIC's alarm management software collects the alarms and messages of all machines in one place, links them to downtime and alerts you when a condition you defined is met.
Every controller reports. Nobody sees the pattern.
Modern machines generate thousands of alarms a day. They appear on the machine's display, are acknowledged and are gone. Which alarm precedes a stop, which machine throws the same message again and again, nobody sees that way.
Pattern: A-231 precedes all 3 stops on Press 4
Rule: 2× A-231 in 60 min → push to maintenance
How alarm management works in SYMESTIC
Capture centrally.
SYMESTIC's Cloud Gateway reads alarms and messages directly from the controller via OPC UA. It runs on site and also captures alarms that are active for only a few milliseconds.
Prioritize and link.
You decide which alarms matter. The live view shows alarms next to the stops, so that connections become visible.
React in time.
When freely defined conditions are met, for example a certain alarm several times within an hour, a message goes out by push or email to the people responsible.
