Figure 3.19 Settings Dialog Box – Alert Preferences

In the Settings dialog box, under the Alert Preferences tab (Figure 3.19),

you have several options:

3.7.1.1 Event Log

• Append events to your current log file, or

• Replace the log file (overwrite it)

• Rename the log file

• Enable or disable the event logging function

3.7.1.2 Enable Global Alerts for Severity Level(s)

• For each type of alarm (Email, Pager, Fax, Launch Application, and

Alarm Sound) check the box(es) corresponding to the event severity

level(s) for which you would like to enable this type of alarm globally.

For example, in Figure 3.19, all Level 0 and Level 1 messages/events

will result in an alarm sound locally, and E-mail, page (Level 0 only),

and fax to those individuals identified in Alarm Setup.
