Set Up Event and Alarm Priorities

Set up event and alarm priorities in the Event Policies module.

  1. Go to Configuration > Event Policies.

  2. The Event Policies module allows the operator to specify the following options for each available event log code:

    • Treat the log code as an alarm or an event

    • Whether to save the log code to the database

    • Event priority

    • Sound and color associated with the event

    • The Applicability of the event

  3. Select Event Policy.

  4. Make changes to the policy as appropriate:

    • To cause events of this type to be recorded as alarms and displayed in the Alarms module, select Is alarm.

    • If Is alarm is enabled, Alert sound specifies the sound to be played when an alarm of this type occurs.

    • Use the Priority drop-down arrow to change the priority of the event or alarm. Positive priorities are above normal priority and negative priorities are below normal. Zero is normal.

      • Caution: Is recorded should only be disabled by advanced users under the advice of DMP technical support.

  5. Press Save and Close.
