Abstract
Described herein are systems and methods of dynamically displaying a network of alarms. This can comprise establishing a first hierarchy of a plurality of alarms in an alarm server, the plurality of alarms comprising the network of alarms; receiving a state of the alarms over a network, wherein the state of the alarms are received from one or more Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) for Process Control (OPC) Unified Architecture (UA) clients through a standard interface of an Object Linking and Embedding for Process Control (OPC) Alarms and Events (OPC AE) protocol, communicating with the alarm server; dynamically changing the first hierarchy of the alarms based on the state of the alarms to obtain a second hierarchy of the alarms; and presenting, on a display in communication with the alarm server, a second list of alarms to an operator based on the second hierarchy.
