Parameter

Name	Type	Description
sTime	STRING	The cycle time (in seconds) of the PWM signal generator.
ErrorId	DINT	Error number (this can be used to read a plain text message from an .XML file).
Count	INT	Number of the alarm memory.
Bitmap	INT	This can be used to visualize the state in an error message. Where 5=Alarm inactive, 4=Alarm active, 3=Warning inactive, 2=Warning active, 1=Note, 0=Empty.
Prio	INT	Indicates the type of alarm. A distinction is made between Alarm=3, Warning=2, Note=1, Empty=0.
Idx1	INT	The module or drive number should be specified here (but can be used arbitrarily).
Idx2	INT	The zone number is to be specified here (but can be used as desired).
i_align	ARRAY OF INT	INTEGER Alignment.
Active	BOOL	By calling the function block FB_MsgAppend_TcTvA() an error is added to the alarm history and activated via this Bool. If the error is corrected, this Boolean is deactivated by the function block FB_MsgDeactivate_TcTvA().
Pending	BOOL	Alarms that are no longer active (Active:=FALSE) can be deactivated via the function block FB_MsgClearPending_TcTvA().
Signal	BOOL	For messages with Prio:=5 additionally Signal:=TRUE, whereby a horn can be activated. By calling FB_MsgClearSignal_TcTvA() Signal:=FALSE.
b_align	ARRAY OF BOOL	BOOL Alignment.
