The Alarm Status function provides a convenient method for creating alerts for various
conditions that may warrant immediate attention from operators. A single LED located at the
top of the screen next to the Alarm Status button alerts the user to changes in the status of any
configured alarms on a “most severe” basis, and provides navigation to the more detailed Alarm
Status screen.

To create an alarm, click a row in the Alarms list and select the condition to be monitored from
the drop-down menu. Up to 24 individual conditions may be selected, along with the desired
e-mail notification recipients for that condition. As seen in the Alarms list, an Alarm can be a
specific condition at a particular circuit breaker location or a general condition across any of
the circuit breakers.
