Structured Alarm Logic at Scale
Build alarm logic from definitions with multiple trigger types (TAG, GRT, GEQ, LES, LEQ, EQU). Configure alarm delays, enable conditions, and generate structured ladder logic routines that follow consistent patterns.
How It Works
Define
Define alarm points with trigger types and conditions
Configure
Configure delays and enable logic
Generate
Generate alarm routines and tag definitions
Built for engineers like you
Configuring 150 temperature, pressure, and level alarms for a chemical batch reactor
Define alarm conditions in a spreadsheet, generate all logic with consistent patterns.
Adding alarm monitoring to an existing facility with no alarm management
Upload tag list, define thresholds, generate and import L5X without touching existing logic.
Building alarm logic rung-by-rung, ensuring consistency across hundreds of alarm points.
What PLCflow Does
- Define alarm points with trigger types and conditions
- Configure delays and enable logic
- Generate alarm routines and tag definitions
Before & After
See the difference PLCflow makes on a real project.
- Type each alarm rung individually in Studio 5000
- Copy and modify detection/ack/reset for each alarm point
- Miss one enable condition, find it during commissioning
- Inconsistent patterns across different engineers' work
- Define all alarms in a table with trigger types, limits, and delays
- Click Generate for complete detection, acknowledgment, and reset logic
- Every alarm follows the same structure automatically
- Export L5X and tag CSVs ready for import
Engineered for Complexity
Purpose-built capabilities for industrial-scale projects.
Multiple Trigger Types
Boolean tag monitoring, greater-than, greater-or-equal, less-than, less-or-equal, and equal comparison triggers.
Configurable Delays
Set on-delay and off-delay timers per alarm point. Prevent nuisance alarms from process noise.
Enable Condition Logic
Attach enable conditions to each alarm. Alarms only activate when their parent system or zone is running.
Batch Definition
Define hundreds of alarms in a spreadsheet and generate all detection, acknowledgment, and reset logic in one operation.
