Text file that contains the texts of system alarms. It must be inserted inside the CF/SD. If it is not defined the default texts (English) will be displayed.

NOTE: In the RDE installation director ETC/RTE/ALSYS subdirectory there are language translation files.

NOTE: For RTE handling of user and system alarm files, see chapter Alarms: user files in RTE configuration.

File structure

This is an ASCII format file in which texts are defined using the syntax nnnn "text", where:

•nnnn indicates the alarm number (entering this value with a negative sign disables the issuance of the alarm)

•text indicates text related to the alarm nnnn

•%d, %u, %x, %f, %g, %s indicates the type of any parameters that are displayed in the descriptive text. The first parameter in the string is equivalent to parameter 1, the second to parameter 2, and the third to parameter 3

From RTE 34.24.6, the possibility has been added to define the parameter number in the alarm text regardless of position. It is defined by placing after the % character the parameter number (1, 2, 3) followed by the $ character.

In case of system alarms the order of parameters is as described in natural language alarms.

NOTE: It is not possible to define in the same alarm some parameters with positional order and others without.
