Fault Manager
Require: IP-Symcon >= 6.0
The module is used to display active variables in the Visualization and, depending on the setting, to hide them after they have been entered or deactivated. If 'Auto hide' but not 'Confirmation' has been activated, a link will be visible as soon as the monitored variable is active. This link disappears as soon as the monitored variable is deactivated. If 'Confirmation' and 'Auto Hide' have been activated, a variable will be created as soon as the monitored variable is active. This disappears as soon as the value of the created variable has been changed to 1 or 'In process' and the monitored variable is inactive. If 'Confirmation' but not 'Auto Hide' has been activated, a variable will be created as soon as the monitored variable is active. This disappears as soon as the value of the created variable has been changed to over 2 or 'All right'.
