Dear Experts.
I recognised that there is 4 second delay timer for deltaV before flagging PVBad when NAMUR is enabled. As this can affect our Trip abatement program which takes into account PVBad as evidence of spurious alarm to avoid trips from other alarms while PVBad is detected, understanding status handling is very important.
So I have some questions regarding this.
---BPCS----
1. with NAMUR enabled
Before PVBad is flagged for 4 second, how are other alarm parameters(LL, Lo, Hi, HH) are treated? Are they ignored or are some of them also activated?
2. without NAMUR enabled
how is PVBad is flagged? does it have 4second dealy as NAMUR ones?
And before PVBad is flagged for 4 second, how are other alarm parameters(LL, Lo, Hi, HH) are treated? Are they ignored or are some of them also activated?
--- SIS---- Same question as above.
Thanks in advance for any inputs.

Here's what BOL says:
The first thing is to make sure the device is compliant to the NAMUR standard (NE43 in this case), otherwise, it's not going to work.
Second step is make sure the Over and Under range are properly configured
IMHO, it would only make sense to enable NAMUR for Analog devices, and is because for HART Devices, the system allow for other diagnostics to take place
Regarding the process alarms, it will follow the variable, not so much the status, for example, if the NAMUR is enabled, unless you somehow customize the alarm annunciation, you'll have LL, L or H, HH, while a HART Analog device that is configure to change the status of the variable, holding last value, will most likely present BAD Status alert only.
Hope that helps.
