Build Alarm ID

Creates an alarm id using the names of the system and application where the alarm originated.

alarm name

Name of the alarm triggered.

namespace

Name to overwrite the default namespace.

The namespace of the alarm id defaults to the name of the top-level VI where the alarm triggered. If you want to override the default namespace, wire a name to the namespace input.

alarm id

Unique identifier for a process or condition tracked by an alarm. The Build Alarm ID VI concatenates the names of the system and top-level VI where the rule triggered with the alarm name into a path.

For example, an alarm id may look like <system>.<namespace>.<alarm name>.
