Alarm Details View
This selection results in a message being sent back to the originating Listener
requesting that the object be deleted from the Listener Base Records. If
allowed, the request is then broadcast by Listener to the LGMapper Servers
and then on to all Clients.
The result is that the object is deleted from the Listener Base Records and all
Alarm objects associated with the Listener object are deleted from the Alarms
Database. By all instances of the object we mean that if the same Alarm has
been raised and cleared several times, then by deleting its Base Record, all
instances of this Alarm are deleted.
You can delete any Alarm Object that is not currently Assigned or Excluded.
This includes Alarms that are no longer open.
• Properties - this menu selection applies to the currently selected Alarm
Object and has the same effect as double clicking on an Alarm Object. This
results in the display of the Alarm Details dialog as described in Showing
Alarm Details, page 8-8.
Depending on the state of the Alarm Object, not all of these menu items will be
enabled.
The first four items in the above list which have icons shown with them are also
included on an Edit Toolbar that appears when the Alarm Details View has focus.
These buttons represent shortcuts to these same Edit menu options.
Context Menu
When you right click on an Alarm Object, a context menu appears with the
following items:
• Assign/Unassign
• Exclude/Include
• Clear
• Delete
• Properties
• View Options
These options are described in The Edit Menu, page 8-12.
