Event severity
There are four event severity levels and each level has a color code as shown in the following table.
6.2.5 Alarms
Peloris uses alarms to alert users when events of certain types occur. These events are mostly for
error conditions that require quick intervention, but alarms also activate for some normal conditions
that it is useful to be informed about, such as when a protocol has finished.
Severity level Description Color code
Information A normal event that requires a response (e.g. a protocol
successfully completed) or an unusual event that has no
detrimental effect (e.g. a user abandoned protocol).
Dark green
Warning An error or potential error that does not stop processing, or a
request for user action. For example, an out-of-threshold
reagent used in a protocol.
Orange
Error An error that causes an operation to abandon (e.g. a protocol
abandons because there is no station available).
Red
Critical error An error that makes part of the instrument (e.g. one retort) or
the entire instrument unusable.
