The alarm panel in iC Creator is updated to display the selected alarms.
At first, iC Creator assumes the value of the URI location variable to be the default (i.e. the
text string you selected and replaced in
step 7 to step 10 ). If you publish and view this page,
the alarm statuses will be based on the default URI.
Working with Alarm Panel Templates & Widgets
While an alarm panel template, once created, can simply be copied and pasted into various
Web pages, a better way to use such as template is to convert it to a widget.
Converting an Alarm Panel Template into a Widget
Alarm panel templates can be reused, any number of times, on any iC Web page. In iC Creator,
you can convert an alarm panel template into a component, or widget, to provide convenient
access.
To turn your alarm panel template into a widget
1. Right click the alarm panel template, and click Save component to library.
