To disable selected alarms:

1. In the Alarm and Event Summary event list, do one of the following:

‡

Select the alarms you want to disable, and then on the toolbar, click the
Disable selected alarm button.

‡

Select the alarms you want to disable, right-click the selected alarms, and then
click Disable Alarm on the context menu.

2. In the Disable Alarm dialog box, type a comment (for example, to explain why

the alarm is disabled), and then click Disable.

This comment is stored with the alarm and is logged to the Comment field in the
Alarm and Event Log, which you can view using the Alarm and Event Log
Viewer.

Any alarms you disable stay in that state until you enable them again. You must use
the Alarm Status Explorer to enable alarms because disabled alarms are not
displayed in the Alarm and Event Summary.
