Figure 255 – Part of the Alert Edit Screen
This allows the entry of all the alert parameters, which can vary depending on the type of alert
chosen. These parameters are:
8.3.1 Enable/Disable Control
This allows individual alerts to be enabled or disabled. The decision to disable an Alert must be made
very carefully, as it nullifies the purpose for having alerts. The options here are:
Enable
Disable
The desired option is selected using the Scroll Up and Scroll Down buttons.
8.3.2 Alert Type
This allows the selection of the type of Alert (see paragraph 0). The options here are:
Alarm
Warning
The desired option is selected using the Scroll Up and Scroll Down buttons.
8.3.3 Priority
Each Alarm has a unique priority ranging from 0 (highest priority) to 3999 (lowest priority). Each
Warning has a unique priority in the same range; however the entire set of Warning Priorities is
considered lower than the Alarm Priorities. No two Alarms / Warnings may have the same priorities,
and, when scrolling through the priorities, numbers that are already in use will be omitted from the list.
The desired option is selected using the Scroll Up and Scroll Down buttons.
