In Monitoring PSIM, you can generate a report on alarms as failures (see System Report on system failures) by specifying the beginning of the alarm, its ending, and its duration. For this, the alarms must have starting and finishing events. To generate such a report on alarms as failures, do the following:
- On the Control Agent side, add the interception of starting and finishing events. The format of the message must strictly correspond to the following template: <Event name> [<id> ] - <name>, where instead of the <id>, specify the object number, and instead of the <name>, the object name.
Example of a "starting" event.

Example of a "finishing" event.

As a result, there is a list of two events.

On the Control Server side, these alarms are registered as short-term. |

- On the toolbar of the Monitoring reports object, click the System failures button.
