In previous versions of Citect SCADA Alarm devices were defined as devices with their Protocol property set to "Alarm". In version 7.0 the function of configuring such a device is now replaced by setting the Publish Alarm Properties property to True on the Alarm Server.
Alarm devices with their Protocol property set to "Alarm" will be deleted from I/O Devices table by the Migration Tool.
The Migration tool can delete memory and alarm device records. If you want to delete the devices at a later time, deselect the "Remove obsolete Memory and Alarm Devices" option.
Note: Alarm devices with their Protocol property set to "Alarm" are no longer used and will be removed by the Migration Tool. All Alarm Servers will now publish Alarm Properties.
