Hi,
I have three temp probes on three tanks and have set send warning and email alerts but when I receive an alarm it doesn't say which tank has the problem. Is there a way to add a comment so I know which tank has the problem?
Thanks

Rename the temp probes, i.e. Tmp120, TmpFrg, TmpFWP
Please do not send me PMs with technical questions or requesting assistance - use the forums for Apex help. PM me ONLY if the matter is of a private or personal nature. Thanks.
Hi,
All the temp probes have unique names and this is what I entered into the send alarm.
If 55temp < 77.0 Then ON
when temp falls below 77.0 this is the email I receive.

Status: OFF
Statement: Set OFF
thanks
Make sure your outlet is in auto. The message you are receiving means there is no longer an alarm not the alarm itself.
You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.
The outlet is set to auto but the status is off on send alarm and email. The first line of code is set off, is that the problem?
The first line needs to be set OFF, so that's not the problem. What is likely happening is you temp was only low enough to alarm for a second or two, but by the time fusion sent the alert it was back to normal. The way to fix that is to add a 30 second defer at the end of the code
Defer 030:00 Then ON

The temp went below by .2 and the controller alarm was singing for at least 5 minutes until I adjusted the temp and it got back up to the set temp. Even though it didn't happen in this case, I know what you're saying, but even if it tripped for one second should the email send all the info?
thanks
It wont send the right email if a condition is only for 1 second. The basic way it works (I do not know the exact timings) is that the apex has a processing cycle of around 1 second. During the first processing cycle it will set the email to alarm. During a later processing cycle (not sure if it's the next one or if this takes a few) it will discover that the email alarm is on and triggers fusion to send the current email alarm conditions. If I pulled my temp probe out of the water for 1 second and dropped it back in before adding the defer to my email outlet I would get only the set OFF about 10 seconds or so after I pulled the probe.

Got it. Does the defer statement go after each condition or do I just need one at the end? I have 6 conditions, 6 high and six low.
thanks
Just one at the end. I use 30 seconds myself.
