Display of Unassigned Alarms
For Customer nodes, in addition to the name of the Node being displayed in the
Tree View, a count of the number of open Alarms which have not been assigned
is displayed as a number in parentheses following the name. An Open Alarm is
defined as an Alarm object that has been created, but is still in the Down state, or
is assigned to a user. Application Errors, Simple Events and Excluded Alarms
are not included in the count. If there are no unassigned Alarms for a Node, then
no value is shown.
The value represents the total number of unassigned Alarms for all nodes
associated with the Customer.
Navigating in the Tree View
You can open or close a Node in the view by simply clicking on the '+' or '-' icon
that precedes the icons and Node name. You can also double-click on a Node to
expand or collapse the Node.
You can also navigate using the arrow keys on your keyboard. The up and down
arrow keys move the selected node up and down in the list. The left arrow key
collapses an expanded node, or moves to the parent node if the node is collapsed.
Similarly, the right arrow key expands a collapsed node, or moves to the first child
of an expanded node.
The Node that is currently selected is highlighted, and this is the Node that is
represented in the Main View.
You can also navigate to a node's parent using View >View Parent Node or the
equivalent Toolbar button.
