Alarm flood — more than 10 alarms in 10 minutes: the alarm database deserves a review.

Grey first
This screen follows two industry standards: ISA-101 for the interface and ISA-18.2 for alarms.
Neutral grey background, grey equipment: no decorative colour. When a colour appears, something is abnormal. No green for “running” or red for “stopped”: state is read from the fill (solid = running, outline = stopped) and from a label.
Equipment states: Running · Stopped · Tripped · Starved · Blocked · Locked out.
Colour is never alone: every priority also has a shape, a number and a word.
Some consequences deliberately have no alarm (“Starved”, “Blocked”): they are not causes and would flood the operator.
OEE (overall equipment effectiveness) multiplies three rates: A, availability (run time ÷ planned time); P, performance (bottles produced ÷ what the line would produce at its maximum rate of 13,000 bottles/h); Q, quality (good bottles ÷ bottles produced). The target shown under the bottle count is an 85% OEE, a common goal for a well-tuned bottling line.
Here, a deterministic mathematical model (seed 2026) runs a fictional bottled-water plant: “Reset” replays exactly the same sequence. In a real project, measurements come from the PLCs over OPC UA, MQTT or Modbus TCP.
Demonstration: this interface is not connected to any plant. In a real project, any remote command requires strong authentication, logging and a segmented network.
Describe your plant: an engineer tells you what is realistic, and in what time.
