How import Alarms from Excel

[rodolfo_costa]

Hello,

I'm currently developing a project where I can handle 700 alarms on a console and from what I understand I have to introduce all the alarms one by one. I would like to know if there is any way to import them, for example through an excel or something similar.

I'm working on operator terminal version 3.3

Can anyone help me?

Same issue here. Such a painful working with alarms.

I contacted Schneider support and what I was told is that it is necessary to create 2/3 alarms, then export the console variables and within excel it is possible to create the alarms with the respective message and later import

See if it works

Sorry to read that your experience is not optimal.
Unfortunately, here, we are not so much knowledgeable about "operator terminal version 3.3" as it's a forum about "EcoStruxure Automation Expert". (where BTW, working with alarms is great as everything is an Object, and you have objects in objects in objects 😉)

Could you please give me more detail what do you mean by 2/3 alarms?

I have no idea how to export and import alarms would you mind explain it to me?

After creating these alarms, it is necessary to go to the variables and export them to excel. After that, it's only necessary to manipulate the rest of the variables you want as an alarm, just like the ones you just created.

When saving the file you want to import, I advise you to choose the following: .txt(ms-dos)
