In the POU section of my project I have created a Fan function block and defined an alarm group template for this FB with one alarm (Motor fault). In the PLC program I define two instances of the fan function block. When going to the alarm configuration and pressing "Create or update alarm instances", I get two alarms listed. So far so good. However, when I start my program and check the alarm table in the visualization I only see one alarm, even if both are active.
Am I doing something wrong, or is it not possible to define alarms on a function block level and get one set of alarms per instance of the function block?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
