BASIC UNIT VIEWS
When you click on a device icon in the System Tree, the following view opens in
the EMS View Frame, in which there are three places where the selected device is
identified. Notice also the indicators for active alarms. In this instance the alarm
overlays on the Host and Remote Unit icons indicate that an alarm is active on
each device, and the Alarm Counter shows the count of active alarms.
The following graphic identifies the components in a basic unit view.
