Alarm management designates the process of automatic detection as well as notification of critical or deviating conditions in a system or within a plant. An alarm is usually defined as an event that requires immediate intervention by facility management. Environmental hazards or processes that are detrimental to energy efficiency may also be covered by alarm systems. As a general rule, too many alarms tend to be preconfigured rather than too few.In building operations, alarming means that a monitoring system is active that detects deviations and potential problems in the building's systems and informs the relevant interfaces about them. aedifion provides an automatically generated summary of the system status of building technology systems in this context. This happens, for example, when there is a fault in a system or setpoints are not reached. Alarm management also has an important role to play in the building's safety and security. Smoke detectors, fire alarm systems and other devices are covered by the generic term and can be connected to an AI-based building automation system in order to trigger necessary processes immediately in an emergency.
