Logical Sources
Creating and Configuring Logical Sources
In the selected cell, the prefix “EXT” indicates that the assignment is from an external
source and is followed with information such as the device class and a name.
4 On the File menu, click Save.
The sources table is saved.
Configuring color level assignments
You may configure sources with color levels so that you can distinguish them at a glance on
the monitor wall. For example, your sources could have three color levels: one that you
would apply to a monitor’s border color, one to a UMD’s background, and one to the UMD
text.
To configure a logical source’s color levels
1 Click the Channels/Sources tab in the main window.
2 In the sources table, double-click the cell that corresponds to the logical source and
color level you wish to configure.
The color picker window opens.
3 In Colors, click the tab that corresponds to the color space you wish to use, and then
choose the color that will be associated with the selected source and color level.
Notes
• You can select multiple elements in the GSM alarm browser (by pressing
Shift+click or Ctrl+click as needed) and assign them to consecutive logical
sources at once, by dragging the multiple selection to the appropriate
level for the first logical source you wish to configure. The elements are
inserted in the same order you selected them.
• Drag an alarm folder to an alarm level to monitor the folder’s status.
Dragging an alarm folder to a text level is not supported.
• GSM alarms are not available as triggers for background actions
(see Creating Background Actions on page 324).
• Incremental copy is not supported in the case of assignments from
external providers (see Making Further Assignments by Incremental Copy
on page 201).
